Polarization Pinning at Antiphase Boundaries in Multiferroic YbFeO
Guodong Ren, Pravan Omprakash, Xin Li +4
The switching characteristics of ferroelectrics and multiferroics are influenced by the interaction of topological defects with domain-walls. We report on the pinning of polarizati…
Improper flexoelectricity in hexagonal rare-earth ferrites
Xin Li, Guodong Ren, Yu Yun +5
Flexoelectricity is a universal effect that generates electric polarization due to broken inversion symmetry caused by local strain gradient. The large strain gradient at nanoscale…
Strain-driven stabilization of a room-temperature chiral multiferroic with coupled ferroaxial and ferroelectric order
Guodong Ren, Gwan Yeong Jung, Huandong Chen +9
Noncollinear ferroic materials are sought after as testbeds to explore the intimate connections between topology and symmetry, which result in electronic, optical and magnetic func…
Antiferroelectric Hafnia Down to the 2D Limit
Xin Li, Guodong Ren, Haidong Lu +16
Antiferroelectricity is a material property characterized by alternating electric dipoles spontaneously ordered in antiparallel directions. Antiferroelectrics are promising for ene…
Emergent Atomic Scale Polarisation Vortices in BaTiS3
Boyang Zhao, Gwan Yeong Jung, Shantanu Singh +21
Topological defects, such as vortices and skyrmions in magnetic and dipolar systems, can give rise to properties that are not observed in typical magnets and dielectrics. Here, we…
Molten flux growth of single crystals of quasi-1D hexagonal chalcogenide BaTiS3
Huandong Chen, Shantanu Singh, Hongyan Mei +7
BaTiS3, a quasi-1D complex chalcogenide, has gathered considerable scientific and technological interest due to its giant optical anisotropy and electronic phase transitions. Howev…
