  • Chapter
Multifunctional Polycrystalline Ferroelectric Materials

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Materials Science ((SSMATERIALS,volume 140))

Abstract

Today, many dielectric materials are used in applications for their piezoelectric properties. Among all piezoelectric materials, ferroelectrics built an important subgroup. Ferroelectricity in such materials is a typical phenomenon resulting from the spontaneous existence of permanent electric dipole moments in their structure that can be reversed by application of an electric field. From the structural point of view, ferroelectricity is a structural phase transition from paraelectric (also called parent or higher symmetry) to ferroelectric (lower symmetry) phase. Crystallographic groups are in group-subgroup relationship for para- and ferroelectric phases.
