Electrothermal properties of perovskite ferroelectric films

First-principles modeling of strain in perovskite ferroelectric thin films

We review the role that first-principles calculations have played in understanding the effects of substrate-imposed misfit strain on epitaxially grown perovskite ferroelectric films. We do so by analyzing the case of BaTiO3, complementing our previous publications on this subject with unpublished data to help explain in detail how these calculations are done. We also review similar studies in t...

Scaling Of Ferroelectric Properties In Thin Films

A fundamental issue in ferroic systems (ferromagnetic and ferroelectric) is the scaling of the order parameter (magnetization or polarization) with size. Specifically, in ferroelectric thin films, deviations in the polarization can occur due to: (i) competition between thermal vibrations and the correlation energy (which aligns the dipoles); (ii) damage during fabrication. These deviations will...

Ferroelectric Graphene-Perovskite Interfaces.

Owing to their record-breaking energy conversion efficiencies, hybrid organometallic perovskites have emerged as the most promising light absorbers and ambipolar carrier transporters for solution-processable solar cells. Simultaneously, due to its exceptional electron mobility, graphene represents a prominent candidate for replacing transparent conducting oxides. Thus, it is possible that combi...
