MIT researchers and collaborators have directly characterized the three-dimensional atomic and polar structure of a relaxor ferroelectric using a technique called multislice electron ptychography, reporting that key polarization features are smaller than leading simulations predicted—results that could help refine models used to design future sensing, computing and energy devices.
