Abstract

The bonds structure, atomic coordination situation and local cluster structure in SrBi2Ta2O9 were analyzed by means of the Atomic Environment Calculation (AEC), and then the SrBi2Ta2O9 crystal was decomposed into 20 pseudo-binary crystals with the crystal decomposition method. The chemical bonds properties, such as effective valence electron density and iconicity of the individual bond were calculated by the dielectric chemical bonds theory. And the correlation between chemical bonds properties and spontaneous polarization of the bismuth layered ferroelectrics was established. Finally, the spontaneous polarization in ferroelectric SrBi2Ta2O9 and other relevant ferroelectrics were calculated, which are in good agreement with the experimental values and other theoretical calculated values.
