Domain wall motion in proper and improper ferroelastic materials — •Wilfried Schranz — University of Vienna, Faculty of Physics, Boltzmanngasse 5, Vienna, Austria

Many proper and improper ferroelastic materials display (at low measurement frequncies) a huge elastic softening below Tc. This giant elastic softening is caused by domain wall motion and can be supressed with uniaxial stress. Here we review our results on frequency and temperature dependent elastic measurements of SrTiO3 [1], KMnF3 and KMn1−xCaxF3 [2], PbZrO3, NH4HC2O4·1/2H2O [3] and BaFe2As2 [4] and put them into context with data from literature. We also present a model [5] based on Landau-Ginzburg theory to describe superelastic softening observed in some of the perovskite systems (improper ferroelastic) as well as in iron based superconductors (pseudo-proper ferroelastic) and show, how the theory can be extended to describe the effects of domain miniaturization (e.g. near morphotropic phase boundaries) on the macroscopic porperties of materials.
