We investigated microscopic lattice states in the donor-acceptor ionic Mott insulator, tetrathiafulvalene-bromanil (TTF-BA), bynuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) spectroscopy to explore cross-correlated fluctuations between spin, charge, and the lattice. A ferroelectric transition with lattice dimerization is captured by a NQR line splitting with the critical exponentof, close to thevalue in the three-dimensional Ising universality class, 0.33, and a peak formation in the spin-lattice relaxation rateat the transition temperature, of 53 K. Notably,does not obey the conventionallaw expected for the Raman process of phonons even far above, indicating the emergence of extraordinary lattice fluctuations. They are very probably associated with polar fluctuations in the paraelectric and paramagnetic phase of TTF-BA and explain the anomalously suppressed paramagnetic spin susceptibility prior to the nonmagnetic ferroelectric order as observed by Sunamiet al.[Phys. Rev. Research 2, 043333 (2020)2643-156410.1103/PhysRevResearch.2.043333].
