Nanocomposites of a ferroelectric matrix polymer with dispersed ferroelectric ceramic nanoparticles can be polarized to be piezo-or pyroelectric alone at a given temperature, due to the different origin of piezoelectricity in polymers (dipole density) and ceramics (intrinsic). With a two-step poling procedure, which allows selective poling of the ceramic inclusion and the ferroelectric polymer, bifunctionality is achieved in the same material. The selective poling of filler and matrix phase is proved by ferroelectric hysteresis measurements at room temperature. Such bifunctional materials may be interesting for artificial skin, sensitive to changes in pressure and temperature.
