The condition for the inverse piezoelectric effect in polymers is discussed and a thermodynamic criteria is derived. The resulting expression is related to the electrical configuration of the polymer and several promising structures are proposed. A dynamical model of the piezoelectric effect is given, and expressions are derived for the compliance and electromechanical losses.
