Dielectric Properties and Hysteresis Loops of a Ferroelectric Nanoparticle System Described by the Transverse Ising Model

• In this work, we use the effective field theory based on the probability distribution method to investigate the longitudinal and transverse polarizations, susceptibility, pyroelectric coefficient, and the hysteresis behavior of a ferroelectric cubic nanowire. The effects of the core-shell exchange interaction and the core-shell transverse fields on the longitudinal and transverse polarizations, the susceptibility, the pyroelectric coefficient, and the hysteresis loops of the system are examined. Some characteristic phenomena are found in the thermal variations, depending on the physical parameters in the shell and in the core.
