Tilt-driven ferrielectricity in PbZrO

Huazhang Zhang, Ying Liu, Carson Carroll +6

We reveal a tilt-driven mechanism for ferrielectricity in prototypical antiferroelectric PbZrO. Specifically, introducing an additional octahedral tilt into the antiferroelectr…

Direct spatiotemporal imaging of carriers reveals a long-lived bulk photovoltaic mechanism

Saptam Ganguly, Sebin Varghese, Aaron M. Schankler +6

The bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), a manifestation of broken centrosymmetry, has attracted interest as a probe of the symmetry and quantum geometry of materials, and for use in p…

Ultrafast decoupling of polarization and strain in ferroelectric BaTiO

Le Phuong Hoang, David Pesquera, Gerard N. Hinsley +20

A fundamental understanding of the interplay between lattice structure, polarization and electrons is pivotal to the optical control of ferroelectrics. The interaction between ligh…

Switching dynamics and improved efficiency of free-standing antiferroelectric capacitors

Umair Saeed, David Pesquera, Ying Liu +7

We report the switching dynamics of antiferroelectric Lead Zirconate (PbZrO3) free standing capacitors compared to their epitaxial counterparts. Frequency dependence of hysteresis…
