Phase Engineering for Enhanced Piezoresponse in P(VDF‐TrFE) and Its Composites
Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.As the temperature approaches the Curie point, the crystalline phase in P(VDF‐TrFE) decreases proportionally, while the amorphous phase increases. This shift leads to the formation of more interphase regions. Although spontaneous polarization from crystalline regions decreases, the interphase regions enable additional deformation, thereby enhancing the
