(001)-epitaxial SrTiO3 films were grown on (La, Sr)(Al, Ta)O-3 substrates for investigating the impact of biaxial strain on the antiferrodistortive (AFD) structural phase transition in SrTiO3. The films were fully constrained by the substrates, which resul ...
we present a detailed study of the spinel CdEr2Se4 and show it to be a new instance of spin ice, the first one in an erbium material and the first one in a spinel. Definitive experimental evidence comes from the temperature dependence of the magnetic entro ...
Pure and barium titanate (BT) powders doped with different lanthanum concentration were prepared by the polymeric precursor method (Pechini process) which was carried out as a three-stage process from organometallic complexes. Sintering of pressed powders ...
An n=7 Aurivillius phase, Sr4Bi4Ti7O24, with c=6.44 nm, was synthesized as an epitaxial (001)-oriented film. This phase and its purity were confirmed by x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The material is ferroelectric, with a P-r=5.3 m ...
A systematic study was carried out to assess property changes in CaCu3Ti4O12 thin films upon annealing in air in order to evaluate the impact of oxygen vacancies on their colossal dielectric constant behavior. Highly preferentially oriented thin-film sampl ...
In the first part of this paper, IrO2 electrodes produced by thermal decomposition of H2IrCl6 precursor were manufactured using the spin coating deposition technique, where centrifugal forces spread the precursor solution with simultaneous evaporation of t ...
GaN films epitaxially-grown on M-sapphire may have different orientations, either nonpolar and semipolar. In this paper, the different epitaxial relationships are investigated in details thanks to transmission electron microscopy. It is shown that these re ...
Commercial glass frits (lead borosilicate glasses) were employed as the sintering aids to reduce the sintering temperatures of BST ceramics. The effects of the glass content and the sintering temperature on the microstructures, dielectric properties and tu ...
Interest in Ferroelectric FETs originates from their potential as non-volatile memories and, more recently, as abrupt switches. In this work, we focus on the role of the Curie temperature of the gate stack on the performance of Fe-FETs. The proposed study ...
The effect of poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS), hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and D-fructose additives on the growth of BaTiO3 particles by aqueous synthesis is studied. Through different mechanisms ...
