Physics, Astronomy & Cosmology / Can you freeze dielectric polarization?

OK what I'm trying to say is rather simple.
Lets say you have water which is a polarized molecule, you place the water near a high voltage electric field to align all the water molecules along an axis then freeze the water and remove the high voltage field
will the ice retain the alignment that the electric field created?
see the picture on the right, will ice grown in an a high voltage electric field retain alignment after the electric field is removed?
I am trying to find a material (lattice) that can align free electron spin along an axis. so that all the free electron spins point in a certain direction.
I want a sea of electrons which have electron spin alignment.
