Intrinsic-Strain Engineering by Dislocation Imprint in Bulk Ferroelectrics

Dragan Damjanovic, Fangping Zhuo

We report an intrinsic strain engineering, akin to thin filmlike approaches, via irreversible hightemperature plastic deformation of a tetragonal ferroelectric single-crystal BaTiO3. Dislocations wellaligned along the [001] axis and associated strain field ...

Nanowire Tunnel FET with Simultaneously Reduced Subthermionic Subthreshold Swing and Off-Current due to Negative Capacitance and Voltage Pinning Effects

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Igor Stolichnov, Ali Saeidi, Teodor Rosca, Matteo Cavalieri

Nanowire tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) have been proposed as the most advanced one-dimensional (1D) devices that break the thermionic 60 mV/decade of the subthreshold swing (SS) of metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) by u ...

Electrical energy generated by silicone elastomers filled with nanospring- carbon- nanotubes

Frank Nüesch

Dielectric elastomer generators (DEGs) are flexible capacitors that convert mechanical into electrical energy. They rely on an external voltage source to charge the capacitor during each operation cycle. An alternative to this is an autonomous DEG which op ...

Modeling Dielectric Constant Variability in Aggregate Polymers from CV Measurements

Marco Mattavelli, Jean-Michel Sallese, Catherine Dehollain, Diego Ruben Barrettino

Recently a new technique based on capacitive sensing has been developed and used to estimate the amount of moisture in polymers by means of the deviation of the dielectric constant. This technique is expected to be used for in-line monitoring of aggregate ...

Long-range symmetry breaking in embedded ferroelectrics

Dragan Damjanovic

The characteristic functionality of ferroelectric materials is due to the symmetry of their crystalline structure. As such, ferroelectrics lend themselves to design approaches that manipulate this structural symmetry by introducing extrinsic strain. Using ...
