Giant negative electrostriction and dielectric tunability in a van der Waals layered ferroelectric
Sabine M. Neumayer, Eugene A. Eliseev, Michael A. Susner +11
The interest in ferroelectric van der Waals crystals arises from the potential to realize ultrathin ferroic systems owing to the reduced surface energy of these materials and the l…
Nanoscale electrical measurements in liquids using AFM - progress and outlook
Liam Collins, Jason Kilpatrick, Sergei V. Kalinin +1
Fundamental mechanisms of energy storage, corrosion, sensing, and multiple biological functionalities are directly coupled to electrical processes and ionic dynamics at solid-liqui…
Spatially Resolved Mapping of Local Polarization Dynamics in an Ergodic Phase of Ferroelectric Relaxor
S. V. Kalinin, B. J. Rodriguez, J. D. Budai +4
Spatial variability of polarization relaxation kinetics in relaxor ferroelectric 0.9Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.1PbTiO3 is studied using time-resolved Piezoresponse Force Microscopy. Local…
Probing the role of single defects on the thermodynamics of electric-field induced phase transitions
S. V. Kalinin, S. Jesse, B. J. Rodriguez +4
The kinetics and thermodynamics of first order transitions is universally controlled by defects that act as nucleation sites and pinning centers. Here we demonstrate that defect-do…
Imaging Mechanism of Piezoresponse Force Microscopy in Capacitor Structures
Sergei V. Kalinin, Brian J. Rodriguez, Seung-Hyun Kim +3
The image formation mechanism in Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) of capacitor structures is analyzed. We demonstrate that the spatial resolution is a bilinear function of film…
Local Polarization Switching in the Presence of Surface Charged Defects: Microscopic Mechanisms and Piezoresponse Force Spectroscopy Observations
Anna N. Morozovska, Sergei V. Svechnikov, Eugene A. Eliseev +3
The thermodynamics and kinetics of tip-induced polarization switching in Piezoresponse Force Microscopy in the presence of surface charge defects is studied using the combination o…
