Relaxor ferroelectric

"Relaxor" redirects here. For the hair treatment, see Relaxer.

Relaxor ferroelectrics are ferroelectric materials that exhibit high electrostriction. As of 2015, although they have been studied for over fifty years,[1] the mechanism for this effect is still not completely understood, and is the subject of continuing research.[2]

Examples of relexor ferroelectrics include:
