Consider Barium Titanate. This has a cubic structure above
120 degrees C.
Looking down this axis, we can observe the movement of
atoms as it moves into a tetragonal structure.
This view shows the cubic nature of Barium Titanate.
The movement of atoms changes the phase from the cubic
phase to the tetragonal, resulting in the production of a dipole moment
along the [100] direction.
