Electroactives materials are materials that undergo physical property changes under the application of an electrical field: this field either induces a deformation (piezoelectric or electrostrictive systems), or a polarization (ferroelectric materials)…These materials are polymers, single-crystals or ceramics (thin films or bulks) with applications as transducers or actuators in a broad range of domains such as medical, electronic, transportation, domotics…
The conference "Electroactive Materials and Applications" initially scheduled for July 2020 was first postponed to July 2021 and then to July 2022.
This conference has the main objective of gathering different scientific communities with common interests in electroactive properties and more specifically on piezoelectricity and related potential applications.
It brought together 70 participants from 28 national and international laboratories spread over 5 countries.
