On the physics of ferroelectrics.
The main physical properties of ferroelectric crystals are described, and the macroscopic and microscopic viewpoints are discussed along with some applications, such as in capacitors and nonlinear optics. The emphasis is on physical understanding, while the mathematical level is kept to a minimum or supplemented by graphical representations to make the article more accessible.
