  • Abstract
    We show that the dependence of ferroelectric polarization on the electric field in PVDF can be determined either using the constant current or a modified Sawyer-Tower technique. Measurements with and without polarization switching were performed and prior to each one the sample was short-circuited for several hours. The results compare very well and the small difference was attributed to the existence of a delayed polarization which is not accounted for in the calculation
