By Jurij Koruza - It is our imperfections that make us humans interesting. A similar statement can be made for many electroceramics. While oneand multidimensional defects are conventionally being avoided, we demonstrate that their selective use can lead to a strong enhancement of piezoelectric and dielectric properties. Moreover, their stability can help to extend the operating limits of our electronic devices.
