Molecular ferroelectric materials consist of organic and inorganic ions held together by hydrogen bonds, electrostatic forces, and van der Waals interactions. However, ionically tailored multifunctionality in molecular ferroelectrics has been a missing component despite of their peculiar stimuli-responsive structure and building blocks. Here we report molecular ionic ferroelectrics exhibiting the coexistence of room-temperature ionic conductivity (6.1 × 10 S/cm) and ferroelectricity, which triggers the ionic-coupled ferroelectric properties. Such ionic ferroelectrics with the absorbed water molecules further present the controlled tunability in polarization from 0.68 to 1.39 μC/cm, thermal conductivity by 13% and electrical resistivity by 86% due to the proton transfer in an ionic lattice under external stimuli. These findings enlighten the development of molecular ionic ferroelectrics towards multifunctionality.
分子铁电材料由通过氢键、静电力和范德华相互作用结合在一起的有机和无机离子组成。然而，尽管分子铁电体具有独特的刺激响应结构和构建单元，但离子定制的多功能性一直是其缺失的组成部分。在此，我们报道了分子离子铁电体，其呈现出室温离子电导率（6.1×10 S/cm）和铁电性的共存，这引发了离子耦合铁电特性。这种吸附了水分子的离子铁电体，由于外部刺激下离子晶格中的质子转移，其极化可在0.68至1.39 μC/cm范围内可控调节，热导率提高13%，电阻率降低86%。这些发现为分子离子铁电体向多功能性发展提供了启示。
