Abstract

Vinylidene fluoride and trifluoroethylene [P(VDF-TrFE)] ferroelectric thin film was spin-coated on Au-coated polyimide substrate and its polarization reversal was investigated by analyzing the evolution of activation field (α) with temperature. Although α is nearly a constant between 300 and 330 K, it increases linearly when temperature rates between 200 and 230 K, and between 230 and 300 K. On the other hand, the intensity of X-ray diffraction for P(VDF-TrFE) films from 200 to 330 K indicates that glass-transition process plays a significant role in both the microstructure and the polarization reversal of P(VDF-TrFE) copolymer.
