TLDR
In this article, it was concluded that proton disorder is not the dominant source of diffuse scattering in squaric acid at Tc = 370 K and the phase transition is essentially two-dimensional with β = 0.137 ± 0.010.

Hydrogen-bonded donor–acceptor compounds for organic ferroelectric materials

TL;DR: Ferroelectricity and a significant dielectric response, as well as an antiferroelectric ordering induced by proton transfer, are demonstrated in the hydrogen-bonded chains composed of 2,5-dihydroxy-p-benzoquinone derivatives and nitrogen-containing aromatic bases.

Effects of pressure on the dielectric properties and phase transitions of the 2‐D antiferroelectric squaric acid: (H2C4O4 and D2C4O4)

TL;DR: In this article, pressure dependences of the dielectric properties and phase transitions of squaric acid, H2C4O4 and its deuterated analog, D2C 4O4, were investigated.

Temperature dependence of the order parameter of the two dimensional antiferroelectric squaric acid as determined from birefringence measurements

TL;DR: In this paper, the temperature dependence of the partial birefringence Δ n is measured on single crystals of squaric acid and a phase transition of the first order is detected.

On the temperature dependence of the hydrogen bond order in squaric acid: neutron diffraction studies at four different temperatures1

TL;DR: The crystal structure of squaric acid [3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione, H 2 C 4 O 4, M = 114.1] has been determined from neutron diffraction data at 15 K, T c - 21K, Tc - 13 K and T c + 5 K below and above the phase transition at 374 K as discussed by the authors.

Experiments on simple magnetic model systems

TL;DR: In this article, a review of the theoretical and experimental results obtained on simple magnetic model systems on magnetic lattices of dimensionality 1, 2, and 3 is presented, with particular attention paid to the approximation of these model systems in real crystals, viz how they can be realized or be expected to exist in nature.

The renormalization group in the theory of critical behavior

TL;DR: In this paper, the renormalization group approach to the theory of critical behavior is reviewed at an introductory level with emphasis on magnetic systems, including the dependence of critical exponents above Tc on dimensionality d = 4−e.

Theory of Critical-Point Scattering and Correlations. I. The Ising Model

TL;DR: The theory of the correlations and critical scattering of two-dimensional nearest-neighbor Ising models is discussed in this paper, where a distinction is drawn between the true inverse range of exponential decay of correlations, and the effective range determined from the low-angle scattering intensity.

A structural phase transition in squaric acid

TL;DR: In this article, a second order antiferrodistortive tetragonal to monoclinic phase transition at 97.7°C was found for 3,4-dihydroxy-3-cyclobutene-1,2-dione.
