Temperature-doping phase diagram and endurance in Ce-doped HfO2
Amit Kumar Shah, Haidong Lu, Kawshan Hathurusingha +2
The paper studies how adding cerium to ultrathin HfO2 films changes their crystal phases, ferroelectric polarization, and cycling endurance, establishing a temperature‑doping phase…
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…
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…
Strong tunability of epitaxial relationship and reconstruction at improper ferroelectric interface
Xin Li, Yu Yun, Guodong Ren +4
The atomic structures at epitaxial film-substrate interfaces determine scalability of thin films and can result in new phenomena. However, it is challenging to control the interfac…
Antiferroelectricity with metastable polar state from Kittel model
Amit Kumar Shah, Xin Li, Guodong Ren +3
We have revisited the Kittel model that describes antiferroelectricity (AFE) in terms of two sublattices of spontaneous polarization with antiparallel couplings. By constructing th…
