Abstract
A microscopic mechanism of the outdiffusion-induced domain inversion in KTiOPO4 crystals near the Curie point without applying an external electric field is developed. It is described in terms of a built-in electric field, for reasons of a gradient of donorlike centers. The predicted dominant role of the n-type charges is proved by experimental observations.
