21. J. F. Nye, For our sensing application, the naked piezoelectric material is exposed to an electric field, whereas in certain transducer applications the electric field is applied by means of metallic contacts. In the latter case the internal field is independent of c, whereas in the former case it is not. It should be noted, however, that in general the internal field is not simply a linear function of the reciprocal permittivity but depends on the sensor geometry as well.
