Piezoelectricity in nominally centrosymmetric phases
Compound phases often display properties that are symmetry forbidden relative to their nominal, average crystallographic symmetry, even if extrinsic reasons (defects, strain, or imperfections) are not apparent. Specifically, breaking the macroscopic inversion symmetry of a centrosymmetric phase can...
