Abstract
The kinetics of the emergence of a polarization vector field after a ferroelectric sample is rapidly cooled is investigated in two cases, in which the rate of growth of the polarization vector is determined by viscous forces of phonon origin or by the diffusion of charged particles. Analytic expressions are obtained for the rate of growth of the polarization vector and the period of the inhomogeneous phase as a function of the degree of supercooling of the sample. The existence of a slow relaxation process in the domain structure is established and the time dependence of this process is found.
