摘要
A class of soft electro-mechanical transducer materials that can be used in sensors and actuators is discussed. The behavior of ferroelectrets resembles that of ferroelectrics because the overall properties stem from the huge quasi dipoles that comprise the oppositely charged layers separated by the voids. Piezoelectricity can be described by various coefficients that relate mechanical and electric quantities. It is concluded that internally charged cellular polymer films will improve the quality of life by delivering high-quality audio and practically noise-free environments, enhanced security, vital medical information and more.
