An Exchange-Correlation Functional for Fast and Accurate Modeling of Ferroelectric Perovskites

Owain T. Beynon, Chiara Gattinoni

We present a novel exchange correlation functional, C09x-PBEc, which combines C09 exchange with PBE correlation, to accurately model the ferroelectric properties of perovskites whi…

Non-equilibrium Effects in Vibrational Modes Pumped by Inelastic Tunneling

Chi Ming Yim, Owain T. Beynon, Seunghyun Khim +2

The properties of strongly correlated electron materials exhibit a surprising sensitivity to small lattice distortions, providing an opportunity for their tuning by selective disto…

A strong polarizing field in thin-film paraelectrics

Chiara Gattinoni, Nicola A. Spaldin

The surface charge associated with the spontaneous polarization in ferroelectrics is well known to cause a depolarizing field that can be particularly detrimental in the thin-film…

Magnetoelectric effect in hydrogen harvesting: magnetic field as a trigger of catalytic reactions

Donghoon Kim, Ipek Efe, Harun Torlakcik +11

Magnetic fields have been regarded as an additional stimulus for electro- and photocatalytic reactions, but not as a direct trigger for catalytic processes. Multiferroic/magnetoele…

Layer and spontaneous polarizations in perovskite oxides and their interplay in multiferroic bismuth ferrite

Nicola A Spaldin, Ipek Efe, Marta D Rossell +1

We review the concept of surface charge, first in the context of the polarization in ferroelectric materials, and second in the context of layers of charged ions in ionic insulator…

On the happiness of ferroelectric surfaces and its role in water dissociation: the example of bismuth ferrite

Ipek Efe, Nicola A. Spaldin, Chiara Gattinoni

We investigate, using density functional theory, how the interaction between the ferroelectric polarization and the chemical structure of the (001) surfaces of bismuth ferrite infl…

Chirality at two-dimensional surfaces: A perspective from small molecule alcohol assembly on Au(111)

Melissa L. Liriano, Amanda M. Larson, Chiara Gattinoni +9

The delicate balance between H-bonding and van der Waals interactions determine the stability,structure and chirality of many molecular and supramolecular aggregates weakly adsorbe…
