Abstract
Characteristic features of ferroelectric materials are the transition in crystal structure from a cubic paraelectric phase to a lower-symmetry ferroelectric phase at the Curie temperature T c and the possibility of changing the polarization of polycrystalline materials by means of electric fields. Both features give rise to challenges with respect to X-ray analysis and microscopy.
