DIPOLE. “This term shares a similarity with ferromagnetic, because the spontaneous polarisation can be reoriented by an external electric field, in the same way that magnetisation can be switched by magnetic field. This results in a hysteresis loop in the electrical polarisation, with a remanent polarisation at a zero applied field, and a reversible polarisation with an oppositely applied field in ferroelectrics.”
