When Screening Current Controls Ferroelectric Switching: From Field-Limited to Current-Limited Regimes
Denis Alikin, Anastasya Meng, Michael Kosobokov +2
Tip-induced switching in ferroelectrics is commonly framed as a field-driven process controlled by domain-wall kinetics. Here we argue for a more universal viewpoint: under a scann…

Instability-driven mechanically locked states in functional oxide membranes
Varun Harbola, Thomas Emil le Cozannet, Denis Alikin +10
Mechanical instabilities in thin solids offer a powerful route to engineer nonlinear responses, yet their controlled use in functional crystalline oxides has remained largely unexp…
