Twinning Relationships in Coexisting Cubic and Tetragonal Phases of Ferroelectrics
S. Gorfman, I. Biran, N. Zhang +1
Many ferroelectric materials undergo thermally driven transitions between cubic and tetragonal phases. Despite being well-known for decades, such transitions still pose unresolved…

Symmetry breaking in Prussian Blue Analogues via growth--guided local ordering of hexacyanometallate vacancies
Yevheniia Kholina, Thomas Weber, Joohee Bang +7
We report Growth--Guided Local Ordering, a novel mechanism of symmetry reduction in disordered crystals. This mechanism operates through the directional ordering of point defects d…
