摘要
By the use of the effective field theory with a probability distribution technique, we apply the transverse spin-1/2 Ising model to study the intrinsic hysteresis of a ferroelectric bilayer with an antiferroelectric interfacial coupling. The effects of the thickness, the interfacial coupling constant, the transverse field and the temperature on the hysteresis are discussed.
