33. The exact expression of the electrostrictive term is given by (see equation above) 31. Calculations of the Lorentz field factor f are very sensitive to the symmetry of the lattice and to the size of the dipoles (K. Koga, H. Ohigashi, J. Appl. Phys. 59, 2142 (1986)). For β-PVDF a factor f = 1.85 is found for cubic lattice and point dipoles (G.T. Broadhurst, G.T. Davis, J.E. McKiney, J. Appl. Phys. 49, 4992 (1978)) while, for an orthorhombic structure, it is estimated to only f = 0.98 (R. Al-Jishi, P.L. Taylor, J. Appl. Phys. 57, 902 (1985)).
