The model of glycine phosphite (GPI) ferroelectric, modified by taking into account the piezo-electric coupling between the ordering structure elements and the lattice strains εj , is used for theinvestigation into the effects appearing under shear stresses σ5, σ6 and electric field E3. Withinthe framework of the two particle cluster approximation, the components of the polarization vec-tor and the static dielectric permittivity tensor of a mechanically clamped crystal, and also theirpiezoelectric and thermal characteristics are calculated. The simultaneous effects of shear stress σ5
and field E3 as well as the effects of stress σ6 and field E3 on the phase transition and physicalcharacteristics of the crystal are studied.
Key words: ferroelectrics, phase transition, dielectric permittivity, piezoelectric coefficients,shear stress effect, electric field effect.

I. INTRODUCTION
Investigation into the effects appearing under mechan-ical stress and external electric field is one of actual prob-lems in the physics of ferroelectric materials, especial-ly regarding the glycine phosphite crystal (GPI) thatbelongs to the ferroelectric compounds with hydrogenbonds [1].
Refs. [2,3] describe an experimental study of the effectof the transverse electric field E3 on the transverse dielec-tric permittivity ε33 of GPI crystal. It is shown that theelectric field E3 decreases the phase transition tempera-ture proportionally to E2
3 . Considerable (and increasingwith the field) anomalies of the permittivity ε33 wererevealed in the phase transition region at E3 6= 0. Anexplanation of the revealed effects is presented in [2–4]based on phenomenologic theory as well as within themicroscopic approach using the proposed proton modelof GPI. But a complete quantitative description of theexperimental data was not achieved.
In [5], based on the proton model [3], a model of de-formed crystal is proposed, which takes into account thepiezoelectric coupling of the proton and lattice subsys-tems. Using this model, the effect of electric fields E1
and E3 on the dielectric and piezoelectric properties ofGPI was investigated. The abovementioned experimen-tal data [3] for the temperature dependence of ε33 inthe presence of field E3 were quantitatively correctly de-scribed.
The model of GPI [5] was generalised in [7] to the caseof the reduction of symmetry in the presence of the shearstrains ε4 and ε6. Another special case was studied: theeffect of shear stresses on a GPI crystal in the absenceof any electric field. It was shown that the shear stress
σ5 does not change the thermodynamic characteristicsqualitatively, but the shear stresses σ4 or σ6 lead to theappearance of the components of a spontaneous polar-ization along OX and OZ axes in the ferroelectric phase,and to the appearance of a divergence at the temperatureTc in trasverse permittivities ε11 and ε33.
In the present paper, based on model [7], we investigatethe general case of a simultaneous effect of the transverseelectric field E3 and the shear stresses σ6 and σ6 on thephase transition and on the dielectric and piezoelectriccharacteristics of GPI. Also we demonstrate, how the re-sults previously obtained in [5] are reproduced within themodel generalised in [7].
II. THE MODEL OF GPI CRYSTAL
Models [5,7] consider the system of protons in GPI, lo-calised on O–H. . . O bonds between the phosphite groupsHPO3, which form zigzag chains along the crystallo-graphic c-axis of the crystal (see Fig. 1). For a better un-derstanding of the model, only the phosphite groups areshown in the figure. Dipole moments dqf (f = 1, . . . , 4)are ascribed to the protons on the bonds. In the fer-roelectric phase, the dipole moments compensate eachother (dq1 with dq3, dq2 with dq4) in directions Z andX (X ⊥ (b, c), Y ‖ b, Z ‖ c), and simultaneously supple-ment each other in direction Y , creating a spontaneouspolarization.

Hereinafter for convenience we use notations 1, 2 and 3instead of x, y and z for components of vectors and ten-sors. The Hamiltonian of the proton subsystem of GPI,which takes into account the short-range and long-rangeinteractions, and also the applied machanical stressesand electric fields E1, E2, E3 along the positive direc-tions of the Cartesian axes X , Y and Z, can be writtenin such a way [7]:
H = NUseed + Hshort + Hlong + HE , (2.1)
where N is the total number of primitive cells. Theterm Useed in (2.1) is the “seed” energy, which relatesto the heavy ion sublattice and does not explicitly de-pend on the configuration of the proton subsystem. It in-cludes elastic, piezolectric and dielectric parts, expressed
in terms of electric fields Ei (i=1, 2, 3) and strains εj
(j=1,. . . ,6):

effective dipole moments per one pseudospin.In [7], using Hamiltonian (2.1) and the two-particle
cluster approximation, the thermodynamic potential ofGPI was obtained in the presence of mechanical stressesand electric fields. On the basis of this thermodynamicpotential, the expressions for the dielectric, piezoelectricand thermal characteristics were derived for any direc-tion of the stress or field. In the present paper, we usethe expressions obtained in [7] for the calculation of thesimultaneous effect of the shear stress σ5 or σ6 togetherwith the electric field E3 on the thermodynamic charac-teristics of GPI. We do not show the explicit expressionsfor these characteristics in the present paper because oftheir complicated nature.
III. THE RESULTS OF NUMERICAL
CALCULATIONS
For the numerical calculation of the dielectric andpiezoelectric characteristics of GPI, we have used theparameters determined in [7] and earlier in [5] from thecondition of agreement of the calculated characteristicswith experimental data. They are enumerated below.
• The parameter of the short-range interactionsw0/kB=800 K (820 K in [5]);
• The parameters of the long-range interactions ap-pear in the expressions obtained in [5, 7] in theform of such combinations ν0±

• The optimal values of the deformational potentials:δ1=500 K, δ2=600 K, δ3=500 K, δ4=150 K,δ5=100 K, δ6=150 K; δi=δi/kB;the parameters ψii′j also appear in the expres-sions obtained in [5, 7] in the form of combina-tions ψ±

• The components of effective dipole mo-ments in the paraelectric phase are equal toµx
13=0.4·10−18 esu·cm; µy13=4.05·10−18 esu·cm
(4.02·10−18 esu·cm in [5]); µz13=4.2·10−18 esu·cm
(4.3·10−18 esu·cm in [5]); µx24=2.3·10−18 esu·cm;
µy24=3.0·10−18 esu·cm; µz
24=2.2·10−18 esu·cm. Inthe ferroelectric phase, the y-component of the firstdipole moment is µy
13ferro = 3.82 ·10−18 esu·cm; theother components are such as in the paraelectricphase.
• The volume of the primitive cell of GPI is υ =0.601·10−21 cm3.
• The “seed” coefficients of piezoelectric stress e0ij ,
“seed” dielectric susceptibilities χε0ij and “seed” elas-
tic constants cE0ij are obtained as follows: e0ij =

cE046 = −11 kbar, cE0
66 = 118.8 kbar.
Now, let us dwell upon the obtained results. Figure2 presents the temperature dependences of spontaneouspolarization P2, inverse longitudinal dielectric permittiv-ity ε−1
22 , transverse permittivities ε11 and ε33, molar heatcapacity Cp, piezoelectric coefficients e2i, d2i, h2i and g2i
of the GPI crystal calculated in [5] (dash-dotted lines),as well as corresponding temperature dependences cal-culated later in [7] taking into account the change ofsymmetry in the presence of the shear strains ε4 or ε6(solid lines).
As one can see from Fig. 2, taking into account thechange of symmetry and the corresponding correction ofthe theory parameters have weakly influenced the ther-modynamic characteristics of the GPI crystal in the ab-sence of any stresses and fields. The results of the inves-tigation into the effects of the hydrostatic and uniaxialpressure on the thermodynamic characteristics of GPI,which are calculated using the earlier parameters [12,13]and the corrected parameters [7], do not much differ ei-ther.

EFFECT OF STRESSES σ5, σ6 AND ELECTRIC FIELD E3 ON THERMODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS. . .
Now let us consider how to change the thermodynam-ic characteristics of the GPI crystal at the simultaneousapplication of the shear stress σ5 or σ6 and the electricfield E3. It should be noted that experimental data forε22 obtained by different authors slightly differ from eachother (see [5]). I is quite likely that this is connected withthe different quality of the samples. In our model, thisdisagreement means different effective dipole momentsµy
13 in different samples. We assume that there can exista sample with the same µy
13 in the ferro- and paraelectricphases. Therefore, for the sake of simplicity, hereinafterwe consider a case of the GPI sample with the same val-ue of the effective dipole moment in the paraelectric andferroelectric phase µy
13ferro=µy13para=3.82·10−18 esu·cm.
Also we must note that in all further figures the mainnumber 5 or 6 means the direction of the applied stress(σ5 or σ6, respectively), the upper index shows the valueof the stress (kbar), and the lower index shows the valueof the electric field strength (MV/m). For example, thenotation 5−2
4 means the shear stress σ5 = −2 kbar andelectric field E3 = 4 MV/m applied simultaneously.
Figure 3 shows the dependences of the phase transi-tion temperature Tc in the GPI crystal on the electricfield E3 at different values of the shear stress σ5.

In the absence of the stress, temperature Tc dependson field E3 by the law Tc(E3) ∼ −E2
3 (curve 1 in Fig. 3).On the other hand, at zero field, temperature Tc linearlyincreases with stress σ5 because of the strengthening ofthe interactions between pseudospins under this stress(see [7]). Since stress σ5 does not change the symmetryof the crystal, the curve Tc(E3) qualitatively does notchange under this stress, but only shifts in temperature(Fig. 3, curves 5±1, 5±2 at σ5 = ±1,±2 kbar, respective-ly).

The temperature dependences of the thermodynamiccharacteristics at different values of stress σ5 and electricfield E3 are presented in Figs. 4 and 5. On these figures
curves 500 correspond to the case of a zero stress and field.
In the special case of a zero stress but a nonzero field E3
(curves 504 at σ5 = 0 kbar and E3 = 4 MV/m), the curves

of temperature dependences are shifted to lower temper-atures in relation to curves 50
0. Besides, as one can seefrom Fig. 4, permittivity ε33 in the ferroelectric phasesignificantly increases in the presence of field E3. As wasshown in [6], the decrease of Tc and increase in ε33 in theferroelectric phase are connected with the partial disor-
dering in the chain “B” (Fig. 1) under the action of fieldE3. One more peculiarity is the change of sign of thetransverse piezoelectric coefficients e1j , e3j , h1j and h3j
near Tc (see Fig. 5) in field E3, which is connected withalmost complete disordering of protons in the chain “B”near Tc, as was shown in [14].

Stress σ5 at the constant field E3 leads to a shiftof the curves of the temperature dependences of theabovementioned thermodynamic characteristics to high-er temperatures. That is, curves 52
0 (2 kbar,0 MV/m)are shifted to higher temperatures in relation to curves500 (0 kbar,0 MV/m); curves 52
4 are shifted in relation to504 and so on.
In the case of the application of the shear stress σ6 ina zero field (curves 62
0 in all the figures), the symmetry ofthe crystal reduces, and the two sublattices (the chains“A” and “B”) become nonequivalent (see [7]). As a re-sult, the interactions between pseudospins in chain “A”become stronger, but in chain “B” they become weak-er. Strengthening of interactions in a sublattice at some

value of stress σ6 causes a phase transition to the ferro-electric phase and increases temperature Tc. Therefore,curves P2(T ), ε22(T ), e21(T ), h21(T ), ∆Cp(T ) shift tohigher temperatures (Fig. 6). Since chains “A” and “B”become nonequivalent, then the polarizations of bothsublattices in the XZ plane do not compensate each oth-er, similarly as in ferrimagnets. As a result, there appearthe components of spontaneous polarization P1 and P3
(Fig. 7) in the XZ plane, and the transverse permit-tivity ε33(T ) (Fig. 6, curve 62
0) looks like a longitudinalcomponent of dielectric permittivity.

Fig. 8. The temperature dependences of piezoelectric coef-ficients e1j , e3j , h1j i h3j of GPI crystal at different values ofthe stress σ6 and the electric fields E3.
It is necessary to note that in the presence of stress σ6
and in a zero field, components P1 6= 0 and P3 6= 0 onlyin the ferroelectric phase (Fig. 7, curves 62
0), whereas inthe other special case, σ6 = 0 and E3 6= 0, componentsP1 6= 0 and P3 6= 0 at all temperatures (curves 60
4).As one can see from Fig. 8 (curves 62
0), the piezo-electric coefficients e1j(T ), e3j(T ) tend to infinity inpoint Tc. This is because under a nonzero stress σ6 thesmall changes in strains dε4, dε6 are accompanied bya change in temperature dTc and by a shift of curvesP1(T ) and P3(T ) to higher temperatures. Inasmuch asdPi/dT → ∞ near the phase transition temperature,then dPi/dε4 → ∞, dPi/dε6 → ∞.
Since all the components Pα 6= 0 under stress σ6 inthe ferroelectric phase, field E3, which is applied addi-tionally to stress σ6, contains a component parallel to thetotal polarization (the longitudinal component E
∗3 ‖ P).
This longitudinal component leads to the smearing of thephase transition (curves 62
1, 622, 61
4, 624, 60.2
4 ).
IV. CONCLUSIONS
The reducing of the symmetry of interactions un-der shear stresses ε4 and ε6 practically does not affectthe components of the spontaneous polarization vector,dielectric permittivity tensor, longitudinal piezoelectriccoefficients, elastic constants, and molar heat capacity.However, it allows to calculate also the transverse piezo-electric coefficients.
Dielectric properties of GPI depend on the way of theapplication of mechanical stresses and fields. The appli-cation of only the electric field E3 in the absence of me-chanical stresses decreases temperature Tc, increases per-mittivity ε33 in the ferroelectric phase, and also inducesthe components of polarization P1 and P3 in the wholetemperature range. The shear stress σ5, which is appliedadditionally to field E3, qualitatively does not changethe temperature dependences of thermodynamic charac-teristics, but only linearly increases the phase transitiontemperature.
The application of only the shear stress σ6 to the crys-tal reduces the symmetry of the crystal, and chains “A”and “B” become nonequivalent. Consequently, in the fer-roelectric phase, besides component P2, the componentsof polarization P1 and P3 appear in the XZ plane. Thatis, the total spontaneous polarization vector is nonper-pendicular to the OZ axis. Therefore, field E3, whichis applied additionally to stress σ6, contains the compo-nent parallel to the total polarization (the longitudinalcomponent). This longitudinal component leads to thesmearing of the phase transition.
