A Combined Theoretical and Experimental Study of the Phase Coexistence and Morphotropic Boundaries in Ferroelectric-Antiferroelectric-Antiferrodistortive Multiferroics
Anna N. Morozovska, Dmitry V. Karpinsky, Denis O. Alikin +12
The physical nature of the ferroelectric (FE), ferrielectric (FEI) and antiferroelectric (AFE) phases, their coexistence and spatial distributions underpin the functionality of ant…
Nanoscale ferroelectricity in pseudo-cubic sol-gel derived barium titanate -- bismuth ferrite (BaTiO-BiFeO) solid solutions
A. Pakalniskis A. Lukowiak, G. Niaura, P. Gluchowski +9
Single phase barium titanate-bismuth ferrite ((1-x)BaTi-(x)BiFe, BTO-BFO) solid solutions were prepared using citric acid and ethylene glycol assisted sol-gel synthesis met…
Ferroelectricity in epitaxially strained rhombohedral ZrO2 thin films
J. P. B. Silva, R. F. Negrea, M. C. Istrate +7
Zirconia and hafnia based thin films have attracted tremendous attention in the last decade due to their unexpected ferroelectric behavior at the nanoscale, which facilitates the d…
Local electronic transport across probe/ionic conductor interface in scanning probe microscopy
K. N. Romanuk, D. O. Alikin, B. N. Slautin +3
Charge carrier transport through the probe-sample junction can have substantial consequences for outcomes of electrical and electromechanical atomic-force-microscopy (AFM) measurem…
Polarization-dependent conductivity of grain boundaries in BiFeO3 thin films
Denis Alikin, Yevhen Fomichov, Saulo Portes Reis +7
Charge transport across the interfaces in complex oxides attracts a lot of attention because it allows creating novel functionalities useful for device applications. In particular,…
Room temperature surface piezoelectricity in SrTiO3 ceramics via piezoresponse force microscopy
Andrei Kholkin, Igor Bdikin, Tetyana Ostapchuk +1
SrTiO3 ceramics are investigated by piezoresponse force microscopy. Piezoelectric contrast is observed on polished surfaces in both vertical and lateral regimes and depends on the…
