Dielectric to pyroelectric phase transition induced by defect migration

Dielectric to pyroelectric phase transition induced by defect migration

Subjecting strontium titanate single crystals to an electric field in the order of 10 ^6 V m ^−1 is accompanied by a distortion of the cubic crystal structure, so that inversion symmetry vanishes and a polar phase is established. Since the polar nature of the migration-induced field-stabilized polar...
