Direct evidence of defect mobility in the incommensurate phase of [N(CD3)4]2ZnCl4 crystals
Year: 1983
Type: article
Abstract: X-ray transmission topographies made during thermal cycles from the paraelectric phase to the lock-in transition temperature on [N(CD3)4] 2ZnCl4 crystals of very good crystalline quality have shown (i) a precipitation of defects near the lock-in transition and (ii) pseudo-periodic contrasts which disappear in the paraelectric phase.
