| A renaissance in the field of ferroelectricity has taken place over the past several years ever since the finding of exceptional piezoelectric properties in the lead-oxide class of relaxor ferroelectric materials Pb([Zn. This structure gives them unusual properties such as high dielectric constant and even ferroelectricity depending on the specific atomic elements incorporated. |
