User Webinar: Ferroelectric Crystals of Globular Molecules: CSD Mining and Computational Analysis

Hybrid or organic molecular ferroelectrics could replace conventional lead-based ones. Globular, cage-like variants in particular offer attractive properties including multiaxial ferroelectricity, high Curie temperatures, plastic mesophases, and low-temperature synthesis.
During this webinar Elin Dypvik Sodahl, from the Norwegian University of Life Sciences, will show how a screening of the 1.2M+ structures in the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) identified 54 new candidate ferroelectrics and 16 previously known ones. This research considered molecular geometry, size, space group, and hydrogen bonding.
Join us to learn:
- How hybrid and organic ferroelectric structures can serve as lead-free alternatives to conventional ones.
- How the CSD data was mined to identify potential ferroelectrics.
- Potential applications and advantages of these materials in various technologies.
Who Should Attend:
- Functional Materials Scientists
- Electronic Engineers
- Cheminformaticians
- Anyone interested in data mining from the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD)
