Origin and Reduction of Coercive Fields in ZnO-based Wurtzite Ferroelectrics

Abhijeet Dhakane, Alireza Sepehrinezhad, William Prudnick +5

Wurtzite ferroelectrics offer a route to semiconductor-compatible non-volatile devices, but their large coercive fields (E) constrain the operating window between polarization…

Strain fluctuations unlock ferroelectricity in wurtzites

Steven M. Baksa, Simon Gelin, Seda Oturak +8

Ferroelectrics are of practical interest for non-volatile data storage due to their reorientable, crystallographically defined polarization. Yet efforts to integrate conventional f…
