Edited by the "father of integrated ferroelectrics", this is a comprehensive summary of emerging applications for ferroelectric materials in energy-related fields.
As such, the book reviews both recent advances and future perspectives for these materials with the topics covered including, but not limited to, piezoelectric energy generation, ferroelectric photovoltaics, electrocaloric cooling, electric energy storage, photocatalysis, and first-principles calculations.
With its highly application-oriented approach this volume is of high interest to material scientists, solid state physicists, and engineering scientists as well as industrial researchers.
