Coercive FieldThe coercive field for a ferroelectric material is the electric field required to switch its polarisation from remanent [PR] to zero polarisation [P = 0]. The value of Ec for a ferroelectric crystal is dependant on many parameters including thermal & electrical history, envionmental factors, as well as type and area of switching electrodes.
