Abstract

Infrared spectra and second-harmonic generation data were reported in barium strontium titanate (BST) and lead zirconate-titanate thin films. Second-harmonic generation experiments gave temperature dependences in accord with oxygen vacancy cluster theory. Numerical estimates of the polaron mass in SrTiO3 and BST helped to prove that dielectric data in strontium titanate interpreted can be interpreted as bipolarons.
