This thesis consists of a theoretical analysis of charged domain walls in ferroelectrics based on Landau theory and the theory of semiconductors. First, the internal structure of a 180-degree charged domain wall is considered. It is shown that different re ...
We present magnetodielectric measurements in single crystals of the cubic spin-1/2 compound Cu2OSeO3. A magnetic-field-induced electric polarization (P) and a finite magnetocapacitance (MC) is observed at the onset of the magnetically ordered state (T-c = ...
We present a computational study of the internal optical forces arising in plasmonic gap antennas, dolmen structures and split rings. We find that very strong internal forces perpendicular to the propagation direction appear in these systems. These interna ...
Ordered patterns of highly compliant ferroelastic domains have been created by use of tensile strained epitaxial Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3 thin films, of very low defect density, grown on DyScO3 substrates. The effect of 180 degrees switching on well-ordered a/c 90 de ...
The layered FeTe2O5Cl compound was studied by specific-heat, muon-spin relaxation, nuclear magnetic resonance, and dielectric as well as neutron and synchrotron x-ray diffraction measurements, and the results were compared to isostructural FeTe2O5Br. We fi ...
Ferroelectrics are materials with a spontaneous electrical polarization, which can be switched by an applied electric field between two or more stable orientations permitted by symmetry. The regions where the ferroelectric material is polarized in one dire ...
The influence of flexoelectric coupling on the internal structure of neutral domain walls in the tetragonal phase of perovskite ferroelectrics is studied. The effect is shown to lower the symmetry of 180 degrees walls which are oblique with respect to the ...
We present a computational study of the internal optical forces arising in plasmonic gap antennas, dolmen structures and split rings. We find that very strong internal forces perpendicular to the propagation direction appear in these systems. These interna ...
Cylindrical BaTiO3 nanorods embedded in < 100 >-oriented SrTiO3 epitaxial film in a brushlike configuration are investigated in the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau-Devonshire model. It is shown that strain compatibility at BaTiO3/SrTiO3 interfaces keeps B ...
Femtosecond laser exposure in the non-ablative regime induces a variety of bulk structural modifications, in which anisotropy may depend on the polarization of the writing beam. In this work, we investigate the correlation between polarization state and st ...
