Now, a new study shows that ferroelectricity can be imparted on a non-ferroelectric material if its stacked together—a concept known as proximity ferroelectricity. This could help make data storage ...

These PZT elements are used as ferroelectric capacitors, i.e. the ferroelectric material is the dielectric between the two plates, with a positive voltage storing a ‘1’, and vice-versa.

Scientists have developed a hybrid material that switches between conducting and insulating states while maintaining ...

All of them depend on the polarization behavior of ferroelectric materials, but they exploit those materials in different ways. While they are structurally similar, they depend on different physics ...

“The new ferroelectric material – which is grown in the lab from cesium germanium tribromide (CsGeBr 3 or CGB) – opens the door to an easier approach to making solar cell devices,” they said.
