Jk. Kruger et al., The mono-crystalline state of polyvinylidene fluoride/trifluoroethylene onnano-structured teflon, APPL PHYS A, 70(3), 2000, pp. 297-305
Highly crystalline and uniaxial-oriented PTFE films, nanostructured in one
dimension, were used to produce a new kind of macroscopic single-crystallin
e state in the ferroelectric copolymer poly[vinylidenefluoride-trifluoroeth
ylene]. The mono crystals are built up of regularly stacked crystalline lam
ellae of about 100 nm thickness.
