title: Experimental and theoretical demonstration of ferroelectric anisotropy in a one-dimensional copper(II)-based coordination polymer.
abstract: The anisotropy of polarization in a 1D copper(II)-based coordination polymer was investigated experimentally and theoretically for the first time, revealing that the origin of the ferroelectricity and its anisotropic nature are closely related to the coordination geometry of the metal ion and the packing mode of the coordination polymer.
