Abstract:Flexoelectricity is an electromechanical phenomenon produced in a dielectric material, with or without centrosymmetric microstructure, undergoing a non-uniform strain. It is characterized by the fourth-order flexoelectric tensor which links the electric polarization vector with the gradient of the second-order strain tensor. Our previous work [Le Quang and He, Roy. Soc. London, Ser. A 467, 2369-2386 solved the fundamental theoretical problem of determining the number and types of all rotational symmetries that… Show more

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
