Highly stable ferroelectrics with reversible high-temperature phase transitions and switchable nonlinear optical behaviour are much coveted targets for emerging optoelectronic applications. Here, we demonstrate a cyano-bridged perovskite [(CH3)3NOH]2[KCo(CN)6] (TMAO-Co), a...

The deceptively simple inorganic salt ammonium sulfate undergoes a ferroelectric phase transition associated with a very large entropy change and both electrocaloric and barocaloric behaviour. While the structural origins of the electrical polarisation are now well established, those of the entropy change are more controversial. To resolve this question, we have performed total (elastic), quasielastic, and inelastic neutron scattering, as functions of both temperature and pressure, and DFT simulation. We
