The characteristics of MIS structures based on insulating PbSnTe:In films with compositions in the vicinity of a band inversion grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) were studied. It has been shown that a number of their features can be caused by a ferroelectric phase transition with a Curie temperature in the range T ≈ 15–20 K.

The empty orbital model in perovskite ATiO3-type (A=Mg, Ca, Sr and Ba) ferroelectrics with oxygen octahedra has been proposed. In this study, the impact of temperature on the bond energy of Ti-O has been discussed from the point of view of statistical thermodynamics, then the temperature dependence of equilibrium position of Ti ion has been calculated. The results show that because of the existence of empty orbital, with temperatrue decreasing the repulsion energy of Ti and O ions reduces and the Ti ion shift the equilibrium position in the cooling through the Curie temperature owing to Coulomb interaction. Ferroelectric phase transition in perovskite are successfully explained. Theoretical and experimental results for perovskite ATiO3-type ferroelectrics are compared and discussed.

AbstractThe proximity to structural phase transitions in IV-VI thermoelectric materials is one of the main reasons for their large phonon anharmonicity and intrinsically low lattice thermal conductivity κ. However, the κ of GeTe increases at the ferroelectric phase transition near 700 K. Using first-principles calculations with the temperature dependent effective potential method, we show that this rise in κ is the consequence of negative thermal expansion in the rhombohedral phase and increase in the phonon lifetimes in the high-symmetry phase. Strong anharmonicity near the phase transition induces non-Lorentzian shapes of the phonon power spectra. To account for these effects, we implement a method of calculating κ based on the Green-Kubo approach and find that the Boltzmann transport equation underestimates κ near the phase transition. Our findings elucidate the influence of structural phase transitions on κ and provide guidance for design of better thermoelectric materials.
