Which outcome occurs when a piezoelectric crystal experiences depolarization?

💡 Explanation

Depolarization, here caused by heating above the Curie temperature, results in a loss of dipole alignment; this is facilitated by domain switching via the ferroelectric effect. Therefore, surface charge vanishes, because the electric field dissipates; rather than enhanced frequency or dislocation formation, which require different, distinct mechanisms and conditions.
