ABSTRACT
These
elastic ferroelectrics and ferroelectric elastomers have broad application
prospects in wearable electronic devices, ferroelectric information storage,
and dielectric actuation. However, the piezoelectric and dielectric constants
of elastic ferroelectrics we have prepared are still relatively lower compared
to those of inorganic ferroelectric ceramics. Additionally, ferroelectric
elastomers with high dielectric constants exhibit relatively high dielectric
loss. Therefore, future research should focus on enhancing and optimizing these
properties. The “slight-cross-linking” method for preparing intrinsically
elastic ferroelectrics offers a novel pathway for tuning ferroelectric
properties. We believe this research field has significant application
potential, bridging the gap between ferroelectric materials and emerging
wearable electronic devices. It is expected to drive advancements in wearable
flexible electronics, actuation, sensing, and information storage.
