Relaxor-like ferroelectric response and achiral–chiral switching in an amorphous molecular solid [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsOrganic ferroelectrics offer a molecular platform for integrating polarization dynamics with molecular design, photoresponsiveness and chiroptical functions, including light-triggered achiral-to-chiral transitions, yet these responses remain strongly ...

Design Principles for Fluid Molecular Ferroelectrics. [PDF]
Adv MaterFluid molecular ferroelectrics are a new class of organic materials where ferroelectricity is found in conjunction with 3D fluidity whilst still retaining spontaneous polarization values comparable to their traditional solid state counterparts.

A 3D-printed molecular ferroelectric metamaterial [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020 Significance Molecular ferroelectrics, which show the ability to switch the electromechanical activity by an external electric field, establish the basis for mechanical metamaterial technologies. Despite their theoretical promise, such mechanical metamaterials remain hindered by the lack of adaptive stimuli-responsive materials which ...

Recipes for improper ferroelectricity in molecular perovskites [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 AbstractThe central goal of crystal engineering is to control material function via rational design of structure. A particularly successful realisation of this paradigm is hybrid improper ferroelectricity in layered perovskite materials, where layering and cooperative octahedral tilts combine to break inversion symmetry.

Solvent Selective Effect Occurs in Iodinated Adamantanone Ferroelectrics
Advanced Science, 2022 Organic ferroelectrics, as a type of crystalline compound, are generally solution processing. However, for most crystalline compounds, the changing of solvent would not influence the crystalline phase, let alone their physical performance.
