What is it about?

The structures of PbK2LiNb5O15 showing the ferroelectricity below about 640 K have been studied in the paraelectric and ferroelectric phases by means of synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction. The data are analyzed with a Rietveld refinement method. It is found that the paraelectric structure and the ferroelectric one are of tetragonal and orthorhombic symmetry
