Аннотация: The properties of a Ca9La(VO4)7 single crystal were studied using dielectric spectroscopy and second-harmonic generation. The crystal structure of Ca9La(VO4)7 grown using the Czochralski technique was refined using single-crystal data. The distribution of Ca2+ and La3+ cations over structural positions was determined. The crystal structure refinement results were compared with those obtained previously from powder X-ray diffraction data. It was shown that the refinement carried out using two different data sets leads to approximately the same results for the distances in the polyhedra, but their distortion is significantly less in the case of using single-crystal data for calculation. Dielectric properties and conductivity measurements were performed on polished single-crystal wafers cut parallel and perpendicular to the c axis. Second-harmonic generation and dielectric temperature measurements revealed the presence of a reversible ferroelectric first-order phase transition at about 1224 K from the ferroelectric β-phase (space group R3c) to the paraelectric β′-phase. The ferroelectric–paraelectric phase transition is accompanied by a complex structural rearrangement, including a 60° rotation of the V1O4 tetrahedron, as well as slight displacements of the Ca2+ and La3+ cations. It has been shown that the conductivity differs only slightly along the polar axis and perpendicular to it. Above the phase transition temperature, the activation energy of the conductivity is the same for all directions, Ea~1.2 eV. The influence of composition on the phase transition temperature and the formation of ferroelectric and nonlinear optical properties is discussed.
