Thanks for the response! This made things clearer for me; dielectricity and paraelectricity are in principle the same thing. However, it seems to be that the difference between normal dielectricity and paraelectricity is that paraelectric materials have a non-linear polarization dependence on...

Hello, I am wondering what is qualitatively speaking the effect that causes a material to be paraelectric? I do know that it strengthens an applied external electric field with alignment of electric dipoles. What is the mechanism that causes this alignment of dipoles? In a traditional...
