Room-temperature paramagnetoelectric effect in magnetoelectric multiferroics Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 and its solid solution with PbTiO3

V. V. Laguta, A. N. Morozovska, E. A. Eliseev +5

We have observed the magnetoelectric response at room temperature and above in high-resistive ceramics made of multiferroic Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 (PFN) and PFN-based solid solution 0.91…

A multiferroic on the brink: uncovering the nuances of strain-induced transitions in BiFeO

Daniel Sando, Bin Xu, Laurent Bellaiche +1

Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO) is one of the very few known single-phase multiferroic materials. While the bulk compound is rhombohedral (R), the discovery of an epitaxial strain-indu…

Electrostriction coefficient of ferroelectric materials from ab initio computation

Z. Jiang, R. Zhang, F. Li +4

Electrostriction is an important material property that characterizes how strain changes with the development of polarization inside a material. We show that \textit{ab initio }tec…

Single Photon Emission from Single Perovskite Nanocrystals of Cesium Lead Bromide

Fengrui Hu, Huichao Zhang, Chun Sun +7

The power conversion efficiency of photovoltaic devices based on semiconductor perovskites has reached ~20% after just several years of research efforts. With concomitant discoveri…

Magnetism and electronic structure of YTiO thin films

Yanwei Cao, P. Shafer, Xiaoran Liu +6

High-quality (001)-oriented (pseudo-cubic notation) ferromagnetic YTiO thin films were epitaxially synthesized in a layer-by-layer way by pulsed laser deposition. Structural, m…

Preserving the 7x7 surface reconstruction of clean Si(111) by graphene adsorption

Justin C. Koepke, Joshua D. Wood, Cedric M. Horvath +2

We employ room-temperature ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV STM) and {\em ab-initio} calculations to study graphene flakes that were adsorbed onto the Si(111)…

Intrinsic defects, fluctuations of the local shape, and the photo-oxidation of black phosphorus

Kainen L. Utt, Pablo Rivero, Mehrshad Mehboudi +4

Black phosphorus is a monoatomic semiconducting layered material that degrades exothermically in the presence of light and ambient contaminants. Its degradation dynamics remain lar…
