A Solid State Zwitterionic Plastic Crystal With High Static Dielectric Constant
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Developing solid high dielectric constant materials has been a research focus in the energy storage field. In this research, we discovered a zwitterion with a plastic crystal phase. Due to the short‐range degree of freedom of the dipole moment for this zwitterion, a relatively high static dielectric constant has been achieved in its solid state ...
