Figure 12
Temperature dependence of the s parameter, measured between 190 and 550 K in cycle 1 (on heating by red stars and on cooling by blue squares) for pure (a) α-LAS, (b) α-LAS Yb 1.4 mol% and (c) β-LAS single crystals. Vertical lines indicate the temperature for the ferroelastic–ferroelectric (black line) and ferroelectric–paraelectric (olive line) phase transitions, approximately. |
