Abstract

Local piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties as well as morphology of single crystals and films of two novel chiral organic compounds derived from chiral 2-methoxy and 2-amino acids have been investigated. The crystals demonstrated piezoelectric response exceeding that of lithium niobate. The piezoelectric response was registered also in compound films. Piezoelectric properties and domain structure of single crystals and films have been studied by piezoresponse force microscopy.
