Beyond the Parasitic Limit: A Nanoprobing Framework for De-embedding Intrinsic Ferroelectric Properties at the Deep Sub-Micrometer Scale
Niklas Kyoushi, Georg Schönweger, Ole Gronenberg +4
The continued scaling of ferroelectric devices is critical for next-generation computing architectures, yet it is fundamentally challenged by a metrological bottleneck: at the deep…

Clarification of the Spontaneous Polarization Direction in Crystals with Wurtzite Structure
Simon Fichtner, Mohamed Yassine, Chris van de Walle +1
The wurtzite structure is one of the most frequently found crystal structures in modern semiconductors and its inherent spontaneous polarization is a defining materials property. D…
