Advances in Physics, 1992 In the early 1970s it became clear that the polymer polyvinylidene fluoride is ferroelectric. There have been extensive studies of its properties and of the properties of copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with tri- or tetra-fluoroethylene. This work has led to a fairly complete understanding of the ferroelectric and related properties of these ...
