A simple pseudospin lattice coupled mode model with addition of third and fourth-order phonon anharmonic interactions terms, direct spin-spin interactions terms and external electric field term has been considered for investigation of transition phenomena and dielectric properties of hydrogen bonded ferroelectric crystal Rubidium dihydrogen arsenate (RDA). A double-time thermal dependent Green’s function method has beenused for derivation of response function. From response function shift, width and soft mode frequency have been derived for RDA crystal. Response function is also related to dielectric constant which has been obtained in present paper. By fitting model values of different parameters in obtained expressions, the temperature variations of normalmode frequency, dielectric constant, and loss tangent have been calculated numerically for RDA crystal. Our theoretical results are compared with experimental results. It is observed that our theoretical results agree with experimental results. Therefore, it can be concluded that the modified pseudo-spin lattice coupled mode model with the simplest approximation is quite suitable to explain the transition and dielectric properties of RDA crystal.
