摘要
The controlled modification of the aspect ratio of ferroelectric nanograins by chemical mechanical polishing was investigated. It was observed that the chemical agents do not significantly affect the ferroelectric performance of the nanograins. It was observed that the grains polished for 15 s show strong and well-defined piezoelectric activity in magnitude and phase. It was found that this method can be used to nanomanipulate the shape of individual ferroelectric grains as well as ensembles in a low-k dielectric material.
