Evaluating the Structural Basis for Polar Altermagnet Candidate Ca(Ru,Ti)O
Akash Saha, Yihuang Xiong, Vladimir A. Stoica +15
The interplay between polar and altermagnetic orders remains largely unexplored in the broader landscape of correlated electron systems. CaRuO has been proposed b…
Strong coupling between coherent ferrons and cavity acoustic phonons
Yujie Zhu, Jiaxuan Wu, Anna N. Morozovska +7
Coherent ferrons, the quanta of polarization waves, can potentially be hybridized with many other quasiparticles for achieving novel control modalities in quantum communication, co…
Explicit Planar Finite Element Elasticity Complexes and Elements on Barycentric Refinements
Chunyu Chen, Long Chen, Xuehai Huang
The exact-sequence structure behind the Arnold--Douglas--Gupta family of higher-order mixed finite elements for plane elasticity on barycentric refinements is made explicit. On eac…
Embedded Ferroelectric Nanoclusters can drive Polarization Reversal in a Non-Ferroelectric Polar Film via the Proximity Effect
Anna N. Morozovska, Eugene A. Eliseev, Sergei V. Kalinin +3
Heterogeneous nucleation from defects dominates the electric field required for polarization switching of ferroelectrics. Here, we consider the switching of a nominally non-switcha…
Hidden Crossover and Relaxor-Like Response from Emerging Polar Skyrmion Correlations in Ferroelectric Superlattices
Zhiyang Wang, Fei Yang, Long-Qing Chen
Polar skyrmions in ferroelectric superlattices are nanoscale topological polarization textures typically regarded as weakly coupled objects confined to individual layers, with a ro…
A composite electron-lattice order: electronic nematicity of 2DEG and polarization density waves at a near-ferroelectric interface
Fei Yang, Zhi-Yang Wang, Long-Qing Chen
We consider a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at a near-ferroelectric interface and strongly coupled to polar phonons. Through a self-consistent microscopic many-body ca…
