Transient Negative Capacitance in Ferroelectric Nematic Liquid Crystals
Netra Prasad Dhakal, Alex Adaka, Robert J. Twieg +1
The transient negative capacitance (NC) of solid ferroelectric materials used in field effect transistors can reduce the power dissipation of electronics. Here we show that similar…
