Abstract
Spin-lattice relaxation time T-1 for P-31 was measured as a function o f temperature at 28.2 MHz in a powder sample of Cs1-x(NH4)(x)H2PO4 (CA DP) crystallized from a solution with a molar ratio x = 0.2. This crys tal has the same structure as CsH2PO4 (CDP), which exhibits a low-temp erature pseudo-one-dimensional ferroelectric phase transition at 159 K and a superionic transition at 504 K on heating. The measured tempera ture dependence is explained in terms of hydrogen bond dynamics.
