Ferroelectricity in Simple Binary Crystals

The origin of ferroelectricity in doped binary crystals, Pb1−xGexTe, Cd1−xZnxTe, Zn1−xLixO, and Hf1−xZrxO2 is discussed, while no binary ferroelectrics have been reported except for two crystals, HCl and HBr. The ferroelectricity is induced only in doped crystals, which shows an importance of electr...
