Giant photostriction in lead-free ferroelectric stemming from photo-excited thermalized carriers

Gaëlle Vitali-Derrien, Oana Condurache, Antoine Ducournau +14

Ferroelectrics are polar materials whose polarization can be switched by applying electric fields; they offer unique opportunities to develop performant photostrictive materials, i…

Phonon-tunable THz magnonic emission in multiferroic heterostructures

Sylvain Massabeau, Amr Abdelsamie, Florian Godel +13

Collective excitations such as magnons and polar phonons provide natural access to the terahertz (THz) regime, but efficient generation and tunability remain elusive. Multiferroic…

Strain-induced polarization rotation in freestanding ferroelectric oxide membranes

Alban Degezelle, Razvan Burcea, Pascale Gemeiner +7

Freestanding ferroelectric membranes have emerged as a versatile tool for strain engineering, enabling the exploration of ferroelectric properties beyond traditional epitaxy. The r…

Band gap tuning by structural phase transition in Sm-substituted BiFeO3 powders

Christina Hill, Michele Melchiorre, Cosme Milesi-Brault +6

The substitution of bismuth by samarium in BiFeO3 is known to induce a structural phase transition from the polar phase to a non-polar phase, with a possible antiferroelectric inte…

Terahertz antiferromagnetic dynamics induced by ultrafast spin currents

Sanjay René, Artem Levchuk, Amr Abdelsamie +10

Insulating antiferromagnets are anticipated as the main protagonists of ultrafast spintronics, with their intrinsic terahertz dynamics and their abililty to transport spin informat…

Optical and electronic properties in ferroelectric barium titanate-based compounds

Ingrid C. Infante, Halyna Volkova, Pascale Gemeiner +9

The bandgap energy values for the ferroelectric BaTiO3-based solid solutions with isovalent substitution Ba1-x SrxTiO3, BaZrxTi1-xO3 and BaSnxTi1-xO3 were determined using diffuse…

Multiferroic phase transition near room temperature in BiFeO3 films

I. C. Infante, J. Juraszek, S. Fusil +13

In multiferroic BiFeO3 thin films grown on highly mismatched LaAlO3 substrates, we reveal the coexistence of two differently distorted polymorphs that leads to striking features in…

A new temperature scale T* in lead-based relaxor systems

B. Dkhil, P. Gemeiner, A. Al-Barakaty +4

Via a combination of various experimental and theoretical techniques, a peculiar, identical temperature scale T* is found to exist in all complex lead-based relaxor ferroelectrics.…
