Abstract

By data analysis the ordinary differential equation for the description of an experimental electric resonance circuit with nonlinear capacitor is derived. Triglycine sulfate (TGS) was used as nonlinear dielectric material. This is the most thoroughly investigated ferroelectric with a second order phase transition. Its static dielectric small signal behavior is well described in the framework of the Landau theory, yielding a Duffing-type ordinary differential equation as a model equation of the circuit. Data analysis allows us to check carefully the validity of this model and to determine required corrections of this simplified equation. (c) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
