Study of dimensional effects in ferroelectric pseudoceramics

With the objective to advance in the study of dimensional properties in fer roelectric materials, we have prepared a new kind of materials, which are g oing to be called "pseudoceramic" These are, basically, composites that are constituted of milled single crystals packed tightly in different polymers . In these materials, we control, between other factors, grain-size and the thickness of polymeric matrix between grains. Therefore, we have a large r ange of pseudoceramics, over we study and measure ferro-piro-piezoelectric properties, and we related them with the dimensional aspects.
