Abstract
The dielectric property of N2H5A1(SO4)2·12H2O was studied below room temperature. The dielectric constant measured along the [100] direction shows a discontinuous change at the Curie temperature of Tc = -109.6 °C on cooling and obeys the Curie-Weiss law above T. The pyroelectric charge was measured after poling the crystal. It was found that the crystal becomes ferroelectric below Tc = -107.8 °C on warming, and has the spontaneous polarization of 3.3 μC/cm2 at −186°C.
