An electromagnetic wave or signal traveling from “here” to “there” has an electrostatic field component that we call its E-field and whose direction we assign as the signal’s polarity. Often, the ...

In a study published in Nano Letters, researchers demonstrated that light can change the electric polarization within the domains of a relaxor material in just trillionths of a second. Depiction of ...

Lead-based B-site complex perovskites, also referred to as “relaxors,” exhibit large dielectric responses due to their complex structures. Understanding their atomic arrangements and inhomogeneous ...

Schematic diagram of the beam homogenization method based on polarization-encoded metasurface. QWP quarter-wave plate, PD photoelectric detection. The inset in the upper right corner illustrates the ...

Relaxor–ferroelectric materials are high-performance ultrasound generation elements exhibiting large dielectric responses owing to their complex structures. Recently, researchers from Japan made use ...
