Control of polarization and polar chiral textures in BiFeO by epitaxial strain and interfacial chemistry
Elzbieta Gradauskaite, Natascha Gray, Quintin N. Meier +2
The balance between interfacial chemistry, electrostatics, and epitaxial strain plays a crucial role in stabilizing polarization in ferroelectric thin films. Here, we bring these c…
Nanoscale electrostatic control in ferroelectric thin films through lattice chemistry
Ipek Efe, Alexander Vogel, William S. Huxter +7
Nanoscale electrostatic control of oxide interfaces enables physical phenomena and exotic functionalities beyond the realm of the bulk material. In technologically-relevant ferroel…
Engineering the Magnetic Transition Temperatures and the Rare Earth Exchange Interaction in Oxide Heterostructures
Jonathan Spring, Natalya Fedorova, Alexandru B. Georgescu +7
The properties of functional oxide heterostructures are strongly influenced by the physics governing their interfaces. Modern deposition techniques allow us to accurately engineer…
Combined theoretical and experimental study of the Moiré dislocation network at the SrTiO-(La,Sr)(Al,Ta)O interface
Chiara Ricca, Elizabeth Skoropata, Marta D. Rossell +3
Recently a highly ordered Moiré dislocation lattice was identified at the interface between a \ce{SrTiO3} (STO) thin film and the (LaAlO)(SrTaAlO) (LSAT…
Defeating depolarizing fields with artificial flux closure in ultrathin ferroelectrics
Elzbieta Gradauskaite, Quintin N. Meier, Natascha Gray +6
Material surfaces encompass structural and chemical discontinuities that often lead to the loss of the property of interest in the so-called dead layers. It is notably problematic…
Time-dependent multistate switching of topological antiferromagnetic order in MnSn
Gunasheel Kauwtilyaa Krishnaswamy, Giacomo Sala, Benjamin Jacot +4
The manipulation of antiferromagnetic order by means of spin-orbit torques opens unprecedented opportunities to exploit the dynamics of antiferromagnets in spintronic devices. In t…
Layer and spontaneous polarizations in perovskite oxides and their interplay in multiferroic bismuth ferrite
Nicola A Spaldin, Ipek Efe, Marta D Rossell +1
We review the concept of surface charge, first in the context of the polarization in ferroelectric materials, and second in the context of layers of charged ions in ionic insulator…
Robust ferromagnetism in insulating LaNiMnO thin films
G. De Luca, J. Spring, U. Bashir +9
The field of oxide spintronics can strongly benefit from the establishment of robust ferromagnetic insulators with near room-temperature Curie temperature. Here we investigate the…
Epitaxial integration of improper ferroelectric h-YMnO thin films in heterostructures

We report on multiple fundamental qualitative improvements in the growth of improper ferroelectric hexagonal YMnO (YMO) thin films and heterostructures by pulsed laser depositi…
Inversion-symmetry engineering in sub-unit-cell-layered oxide thin films
J. Nordlander, M. D. Rossell, M. Campanini +2
Inversion symmetry breaking is a ubiquitous concept in condensed-matter science. On the one hand, it is a prerequisite for many technologically relevant effects such as piezoelectr…
Combined electrostatic and strain engineering of BiFeO thin films at the morphotropic phase boundary
Johanna Nordlander, Bastien F. Grosso, Marta D. Rossell +5
Multiferroic BiFeO (BFO) possesses a rich phase diagram that allows strain tuning of its properties in thin-film form. In particular, at large compressive strain, a supertetrag…
