The phase transition from nonpolar to polar in displacive ferroelectric crystals is accompanied by the displacement Δ z of certain atoms from their higher-temperature symmetry positions. A study of all displacive ferroelectrics in which atomic positions have been determined has shown that a fundamental relationship exists between Δ z and the Curie temperature T C. This relation has been form T C=(K 2 k)(Δ z) 2, where K has the dimensions of a force constant, k is Boltzmann's constant, and T C is in absolute units. A least-squares fit, based on Δ z and T C for ten different ferroelectrics, gives K 2 k=(2.00±0. 0 9)× 10 4 K Å− 2. In addition, the spontaneous polarization P s is found to be related to Δ z by the equation P s=(258±9) Δ z μC cm− 2. K is discussed in terms of the interatomic force constant along the polar axis.
