Progressive Structural Complexity in Ferroelectric 1,2,4-Triazolium Hexabromoantimonate(III): Interplay of "Order-Disorder" and "Displacive" Contributions to the Structural Phase Transitions.

Halobismuthates(III) and haloantimonates(III) with the RMX chemical composition create a new and broadly unexplored class of ferroelectric compounds. In this paper, we report the haloantimonate(III) ferroelectric comprising an aromatic (1,2,4-triazolium) cation, i.e.
