| Functional Materials |
|
|
Functional materials are generally those which possess particular native properties and functions of their own. These include ferroelectric, piezoelectric, magnetiC, energy storage. Functional materials are often used in electromagnetic applications and at optical frequencies where the plasmonic properties of metals assume particular importance. Functional materials are also of critical importance in electro- and magnetocaloric materials, for energy storage and for solar harvesting. |
