Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
In this paper we discuss some of the measurements and properties of materials that are crystalline ferroelectrics with a glassy polarization phase. We review measurements of the temperature dependence of the optical index of refraction, n(T), which were first used to observe these properties. Then we discuss a model of these polarization effects in terms of a local, randomly oriented polarization (P,) that may occur hundreds of degrees above T,. This local polarization is allowed by the strong breakdown of the translational symmetry that occurs in these systems. We also show how the temperature dependence of the strain, x(T), complements the n(T) results. Lastly, we discuss some recent x-ray and EXAFS measurements and how they are in agreement with the model, and the connection between these high temperature effects and the low-temperature glass-like excitations that are found in these systems. © 1990, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
