Quantitative Texture Analysis of Polycrystalline Ferroelectrics

  • Chapter
Multifunctional Polycrystalline Ferroelectric Materials

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

Abstract

A large number of physical properties in most crystals are anisotropic. This is even more important in polar materials, like ferroelectrics, where the polarization determines their behaviour. In polycrystals, researchers have developed techniques to grow crystals along preferential orientations and take advantage of the highest values of the anisotropic properties. The preparation of ferroelectric materials with preferential crystallographic orientations, or textures, is useful in obtaining ferroelectric materials with improved properties for a variety of technological applications, like Non-Volatile Ferroelectric Random Access Memories (FeRAMs) [1, 2], where we use the polarization vector for the 0 and 1 bits, or MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) [3], where the highest piezoelectric coefficients are associated to specific crystallographic directions.
