How to find Lyapunov Exponent for a non-linear time series in R/Python?

I am working on a project where I am using chaos theory to check if chaos is there in non-linear time series and use it for a neural network model. We need two parameters for finding chaos (using...

Can PFM phase image be useful to extract multi-state polarization level of ferroelectric thin films?

I want to polarize my ferroelectric PVDF-TrFE thin films in different directions and probe it using PFM. I know that PFM phase can read either 0o or 180o. Can it read any other orientation in...
