Our conference invites world-leading, UK and international scientists, researchers and students to join us to discuss exciting developments in the field of ferroelectric materials. This is an opportunity to facilitate new scientific debate and collaboration. We will cover a broad range of topics including materials science and engineering, physics, chemistry, and applications of ferroelectric, piezoelectric and pyroelectric materials across a range in length scales, from bulk ceramics and single crystals to thin films. Materials processing and characterisation thin films, ceramics and single crystals ceramic multilayers, polymers and composites novel materials multiferroics, magnetoelectrics, electrocalorics, relaxors piezoelectrics and pyroelectrics electrical, mechanical and optical properties Devices memories energy harvesting, cooling energy storage sensors and actuators underwater acoustics ultrasound applications MEMS Theory and modelling first principles, DFT mechanics and thermodynamics finite element and phase-field models device simulation Student prizes Each prize comes with a certificate and a £100 book voucher: Best oral presentation: sponsored by RSC Materials Horizons Best poster: sponsored by RSC Nanoscale Horizons, Nanoscale, and Nanoscale Advances Best industrially related project: sponsored by RSC Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B and C Important dates Abstract submissions open: 02 December 2019 Abstract submission deadline: 28 February 2020 Acceptance notification: 30 March 2020 Conference programme: 01 April 2020
