Meanings
- not comparableBy means of flexoelectricity.
In particular, I identify a gauge invariance in the theory, whereby the energies associated to strain-gradient elasticity and flexoelectrically induced electric fields are individually reference-dependent, and only when summed up they yield a well-defined result.
