Very recently, multiferroic behavior close to the boiling temperature of liquid nitrogen was reported in oxohalide-based Cu2OCl2. In this study, we have established yet another novel mechanism for the origin of charge ordering in multiferroic Cu2OCl2. The ...
The charged domain wall is an ultrathin (typically nanosized) interface between two domains; it carries bound charge owing to a change of normal component of spontaneous polarization on crossing the wall. In contrast to hetero-interfaces between different ...
This correspondence highlights that the Gibbs free energy description of a ferroelectric capacitor in series with a paraelectric capacitor, depends on the initial charge on the plates of the ferroelectric capacitor. An incomplete Gibbs free energy descript ...
A method for driving piezoelectric elements of a micro-system. The piezoelectric elements comprising a ferroelectric thin film, and being configured to be part of any one or a combination of items of a list comprising: a cantilever, a bridge, a diaphragm, ...
We perform ab initio calculations of the coupling between electrons and small-momentum polar-optical phonons in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides of the 2H type: MoS2, MoSe2, MoTe2, WS2, and WSe2. The polar-optical coupling with longitudinal optic ...
The effect of varying the thickness of Pt top electrodes made by the electron beam induced deposition technique on the domain nucleation characteristics of Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 films has been investigated by piezoresponse force microscopy. The advantage of this ex ...
We report on the stabilization of ferroelectric HfxZr1-xO2 (HZO) films crystallized using a low thermal budget millisecond flash lamp annealing technique. Utilizing a 120 s 375 degrees C preheat step combined with millisecond flash lamp pulses, ferroelectr ...
The integration of ferroelectrics in electronic devices requires that they be used in the form of thin films, which implies that for such systems finite-size effects related to the presence of a ferroelectric-electrode interface become important. In this t ...
Antiferroelectrics are essential ingredients for the widely applied piezoelectric and ferroelectric materials: the most common ferroelectric, lead zirconate titanate is an alloy of the ferroelectric lead titanate and the antiferroelectric lead zirconate. A ...
In this paper, the reliability of tunable ferroelectric thin film capacitors has been addressed. The long term stability of tunable capacitors based on Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 films deposited by chemical solution deposition onto an alumina substrate was investigate ...
