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…
Absence of lateral domain wall mobility in Zn1-xMgxO thin films
Jack Eckstein, Kyle P. Kelley, William Prudnick +4
Polarization reversal in ferroelectrics arises from the coupled processes of domain nucleation and subsequent growth, yet the governing mechanisms differ fundamentally between clas…
An Automated Magnetron Sputtering Chamber for Ferroelectric Thin Film Deposition
Stanislav A. Udovenko, Ian Mercer, Sarah Olandt +5
Optimization of next-generation materials synthesis and manufacturing processes can be accelerated by effective use of digital datasets. However, a majority of existing custom rese…
Ferroelectric AlBN sputtered thin films on n-type Si bottom electrodes
Ian Mercer, Chloe Skidmore, Sebastian Calderon +2
Ferroelectric AlBN thin films are grown on highly doped and plasma treated (100) n-type Si. We demonstrate ferroelectricity for x = <0.01, 0.02, 0.06, 0.08, 0.13, and 0…
Processing-dependent Chemical Ordering in a Metallic Alloy Characterized via Non-destructive Bragg Coherent Diffraction Imaging
Nathaniel Warren, Chloe Skidmore, Katherine J. Harmon +4
Of current importance for alloy design is controlling chemical ordering through processing routes to optimize an alloy's mechanical properties for a desired application. However, c…
