Summary
This book is a compilation of the proceedings from Ferroelectrics UK 2001. This annual meeting is designed to bring together industrial and academic researchers and developers in the UK so that they can exchange knowledge and expertise. The papers deal with a broad range of topics covering the physics, chemistry and materials science/engineering of ferroelectric materials. The meeting attracted delegates from America, Italy and Germany in addition to the UK community
