In a series of ferroelectrics (NaN02, (NH4)2BeF4 etc.) the transition into the polar phase is preceded by a transition into a rather peculiar intermediate phase called the incommensurate phase, i.e., when the the temperature falls off, there is observed the following sequence of phases: symmetric/incommensurate/polar (commensurate) (Fig. 11.1).
