This thesis presents our studies on nanostructures growth and magnetism, mainly based on scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), magneto-optical Kerr effect (MOKE), and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) measurements. In most of these experiments, nanos ...
Since the prediction of antiferroelectricity and the subsequent discovery of PbZrO3, the description of antiferroelectric behaviour in materials has been constantly modified to account for the latest properties identified in antiferroelectric materials. Ad ...
The influence of compressive strain on the linear electro-optic (EO) effect in c-domain (BaxSr1-x)TiO3 (BST) thin films was theoretically investigated using a phenomenological thermodynamic model. We considered that the c-domain BST thin films were grown o ...
The transition metal oxides are known for their versatile physical properties and are therefore an active field of research towards possible new functionalities and applications. This thesis focuses on the subgroup of titanates with perovskite structure th ...
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 ...
"More with less" has been the motto behind the hardware miniaturization trend in the microelectronics industry since the 1970s. Active research in the growth of oxide films, including ferroelectrics, which started soon after, followed the same trend. Meanw ...
We grew epitaxial SrTiO3 (STO) thin films on (001) LaAlO3 substrates via a two-step procedure using pulsed laser deposition and studied them with transmission electron microscopy in plane-view and cross-sectional samples. We found that partial misfit dislo ...
In this work, we report an experimental investigation of pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of thin Gd:HfO2 layers at 330 degrees C, which show ferroelectric behavior after annealing at 450 degrees C, compatible with complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor back ...

We report the thermodynamic potential for single-domain (110) thin films epitaxially grown on dissimilar cubic substrates. Using different sets of paraelectric phase elastic compliance coefficients of PbTiO3 single crystal, calculated from the experimental ...
Doped SrTiO3 thin films, 55 nm thick, were epitaxially grown by Pulsed Laser Deposition with niobium contents ranging from 2 to 5 mol% on SrTiO3 and LaAlO3 substrates. The different templates result in different growth defects, film growth mechanism and th ...
