Vortex Ferroelectric Domains
We show experimental switching data on microscale capacitors of lead–zirconate–titanate (PZT), which reveal time-resolved domain behavior during switching on a 100 ns scale. For small circular capacitors, an unswitched domain remains in the center while complete switching is observed in square capacitors. The observed effect is attributed to the formation of a vortex domain during polarization ...
متن کاملUniversal properties of ferroelectric domains.
Based on the Ginzburg-Landau approach, we generalize the Kittel theory and derive the interpolation formula for the temperature evolution of a multidomain polarization profile P(x,z). We resolve the long-standing problem of the near-surface polarization behavior in ferroelectric domains and demonstrate polarization vanishing instead of the usually assumed fractal domain branching. We propose an...
متن کاملFerroelastic domains in bilayered ferroelectric thin films
We investigate theoretically ferroelastic domain fractions in a heteroepitaxial bilayer consisting of 001 tetragonal PbZrxTi1−xO3 and 001 rhombohedral PbZr1−xTixO3 on a thick 001 passive substrate as a function of the lattice misfit strain between layers and the substrate. By considering the self-strain in each layer and the indirect elastic interaction between the layers, we provide a numerica...
متن کاملNanofragmentation of ferroelectric domains during polarization fatigue
The microscopic mechanism for polarization fatigue in ferroelectric oxides has remained an open issue for several decades in the condensed matter physics community. Even though numerous models are proposed, a consensus has yet to be reached. Since polarization reversal is realized through ferroelectric domains, their behavior during electric cycling is critical to elucidating the microstructura...
متن کاملStability Analysis of Domains in Ferroelectric Thin Films
Ferroelectric domain switching under low voltage or short pulses is of interest to the development of high-density random access memory (FRAM) devices. Being necessarily very small in size, instability and back switching often occurs when the external voltage is removed, and creates serious problems. In this investigation, a general approach to determine the minimum size of ferroelectric domain...
