We have used a lattice model based on the Landau-Ginzburg theory to examine the ferroelectric properties of a strongly coupled superlattice consisting of alternating ferroelectric and paraelectric layers. The thickness effects of the ferroelectric and paraelectric layers on the polarization behavior...
