    AnnotationIt is demonstrated that soft modes in 240 nm thick BaTiO3/SrTiO3 ferroelectric superlattices can be probed by infrared reflectivity measurements, which allows us to estimate the intrinsic in-plane dielectric constants of such thin superlattice slabs. Our analysis of the experimental results is combined with the first-principles based theoretical evaluation of optical polar modes in a model system representing the 60-atom periodic superlattice unit cell. This hybrid approach suggests that the observed soft mode is associated with a Slater-type polar mode confined mostly in the SrTiO3 component layer.
