Hysteretic and nonlinear dielectric behaviour in ferroelectric ceramics has been of interest since 1950s, when these materials found application in various electronic devices. Presently, these phenomena concern with important areas of science, technology a ...
We report a first-principles investigation of ultrathin BaTiO3 films with SrRuO3 electrodes. We find that the ionic relaxations in the metal-oxide electrode play a crucial role in stabilizing the ferroelectric phase. Comparison with frozen-phonon calculati ...
The operational range of MEMS electrostatic parallel plate actuators can be extended beyond pull-in with the presence of an intermediate dielectric layer, which has a significant effect on the behaviour of such actuators. Here we study the behaviour of can ...
A device for monitoring the adsorption of target molecules on a substrate, the device comprising a substrate (1), at least a portion of which is formed as a thin dielectric layer. A first, modified surface (2) of the layer has ionizable groups of the subst ...
The operational range of electrostatic MEMS parallel plate actuators can be extended beyond pull-in in the presence of an intermediate dielectric layer, which has a significant effect on the behavior of such actuators. Here, we study the behavior of cantil ...
We demonstrate a program-erasable metal-insulator-silicon capacitor with a dielectric structure of SiO2/HfO2-Al2O3 nanolaminate (HAN)/Al2O3. The memory capacitor exhibits a high capacitance density of 4.5 fF/mu m(2), a large memory window of 1.45 V in the ...
We study the infrared properties of the Si-SiO2 interface within a first-principles approach. In order to provide an atomic-scale description of the dielectric permittivity (both high-frequency and static) and of the infrared absorption at the interface, w ...
A sensor for measuring adsorption on a substrate has been designed including a contactless detection scheme, called supercapacitive admittance tomoscopy (SCAT). The sensor comprises a thin dielectric layer with two parallel band electrodes on the one side ...
We develop a theory for investigating atomic-scale dielectric permittivity profiles across interfaces between insulators. A local susceptibility chi(x;omega) is introduced to describe variations of the dielectric response over length scales of the order of ...
We formulate an approach to the size effect problem in ferroelectric-electrode systems where ab initio calculations are combined with a phenomenological framework. The parameters of the model can be extracted from the calculations, while experimentally ver ...
