The nature of an enhanced ferroelectric phase transition temperature in perovskite-based solid solutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We explain the phenomena of ferroelectric phase transition temperature $T_c$ enhancement beyond the end members in perovskite solid solutions like BiMeO$_3$-PbTiO$_3$ (Me=Sc, In, etc.) is related to nonlinear and spatial correlation effects.
