The IMF 12 is the 12th in a series of meetings held every four years since 1966. The purpose of the IMF 12

is to provide a focused forum for the presentation and discussion of the latest advanced research in the

field of ferroelectricity. The meeting will include invited lectures from internationally distinguished

researchers, contributed presentation and posters, covering a broad range of fundamental and applied topics

related to ferroelectric phase transitions, traditional and new materials and related systems. Physical,

chemical, structural, dielectric, thermal, acoustic, electromechanical and optical properties and their

applications will be considered. Special interest to young contributors attending to this conference will be

given.
