ABSTRACT Ferroelectric materials, characterized by their spontaneous and reversible polarization under an electric field, have attracted extensive research interest. Their unique properties render them ideal for applications ranging from data storage and energy harvesting to sensing and catalysis. Driven by the demand for miniaturized and energy‐efficient nanoelectronic devices, precise control over ferroelectric performance has become a central focus. This review comprehensively summarizes key strategies for tailoring ferroelectric properties, with a focus on external field manipulation, low‐dimensional confinement, interface engineering, and topological structuring. We subsequently highlight recent advances in cutting‐edge applications in memory, neuromorphic computing, sensors, energy conversion, and catalysis. Finally, we present future research directions to guide the development of next‐generation ferroelectric materials and devices.
