Ferro electric crystals are classified into two main groups 1.Displacive Type 2.Order-Disorder Type Displacive: If in the Paraelectric state the atomic displacements or oscillations about a non polar site then after a displacive transition the oscillations are about a polar site. If the soft optical phonon mode can propagate in a crystal at the transition is displacive. it induces ionic crystal structures closely related to Perovskite and Ilmenite. Order-Disorder: If in the paraelectric phase the displacements are about some Double well or multi well configuration of sites then in an order- disorder transition the dispacements are about an ordered subset of these wells.

What is the meaning of Ferroelectric?

In physics the ferroelectric effect is an electrical phenomenon whereby certain materials may exhibit a spontaneous dipole moment, the direction of which can be switched between equivalent states by the application of an external electric field. Placing a ferroelectric material between two conductive plates creates a ferroelectric capacitor. Ferroelectric capacitors exhibit nonlinear properties and usually have very high dielectric constants. The fact that the internal electric dipoles can be forced to change their direction by the application of an external voltage gives rise to hysteresis in the "polarization vs voltage" property of the capacitor. In this case, polarization is defined as the total charge stored on the plates of the capacitor divided by the area of the plates. Hysteresis means memory and ferroelectric capacitors are used to make ferroelectric RAM for computers and RFID cards. Above retrieved from Answers.com Viper1

Why electrocaloric effect observed in ferroelectric polymers only?

Its not true that electrocaloric effect (ECE) is observed only in ferroelectric polymers. ECE can be found in any typical dielectric material. If polarization switches from one direction to the other upon application or withdrawl of electric filed, the temperature of the material changes. It happens both in organic as well as inorganic materials. It is found that the EC coefficent is high near ferroelectric phase transition temperature.
