The switching transient in Rochelle salt was reinvestigated with respect to the domain wall motion. The results showed that the wall velocities were characterized by the two types of activation fields, δ and α at low and intermediate fields, respectively. The relationship α=2δ is nearly satisfied throughout the ferroelectric phase. The result was analyzed in terms of the “layer by layer” advancement of the wall in the nucleation model. The result indicates that the nucleation model can also be applied for Rochelle salt.
