PVDF-TrFE with suspended AlN particles: a polymer nano-composite with boosted ferroelectric properties

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference proceedingspeer-review

Abstract

PVDF-TrFE, additively printed and embedded into the organic surface coating of metallic substrates, has been successfully used by our group for the realization of piezo- and pyroelectric transducers for various applications. Here we present an approach to boost the ferroelectric properties of the material while maintaining the achieved ease of processing, by adding highly ferroelectric ceramic AlN nano-particles that are uniformly incorporated into the PVDF-TrFE polymer matrix. In this way, a highly functional ferroelectric composite has been created, featuring a maximum polarization that exceeds that of the PVDF-TrFE base material by far.
