Abstract

Experimental studies are reported concerning polarization reversal in the single crystal of telluric acid ammonium phosphate (TAAP). The switching currents have been measured under various temperatures and external electric fields. The experimental results have been used in order to obtain the effective growth dimension of reversed domain and the characteristic time of the polarization reversal on the basis of the Avrami theory. It becomes clear that the effective growth dimension depends on temperature and applied electric field.
