Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we tried to reveal relationship between soft-mode and chemical-bonding in ferroelectric phase transition by collaboration between first-principles calculations and precise experiments. We find out the mechanism of giant permittivity of BaTiO3 using newly developed finite temperature simulation. The origin of this giant permittivity is presence of soft-mode with very low potential barrier in BaTiO3. Our findings provide us with an important insight for high permittivity materials design.
