X-ray Absorption Study of the Local Dipole Moment in SrTiO3 under Uniaxial Pressure

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

X-ray absorption spectra under uniaxial pressure were measured at the Ti K-edge of a SrTiO3 single crystal in order to obtain direct evidence for the ferroelectric transition that is expected on the basis of second harmonic generation studies. A uniaxial pressure was applied perpendicular to the ab-plane. The pre-edge peak, which corresponds to Ti 3d eg-O 2pσ bonding, shows little change across the transition temperature of 40 K at 1 GPa. This indicates that a local electric dipole moment is not induced under uniaxial pressure, as opposed to the macroscopic ferroelectric moments that are predicted to be induced along the ab-plane.
