Temperature behavior of the optical birefringence in the transitional regions of the incommensurate phase of [N(CH3)]CuCl4 was studied. Temperature dependencies of the modulated structure wave vector and of the specific heat in these regions were analyzed. The stochastic mode of the incommensurate modulated structure in [N(CH3)]MeCl4 (Me = Cu, Fe) dielectric crystals was discovered. |
