چکیده

On the basis of ab initio calculations we study the interfacial magnetoelectric effect in a prototypical biferroic Fe(L)/XO2/BaO/BaTiO3(001) (X = Ti, V, Co), with an Fe thickness L ≤ 2 monolayers. We anticipate that the use of the n-type perovskite termination instead of nominally neutral TiO2 may enhance magnetoelectricity in the system when its magnetization is robustly changed by substrate-polarization reversal.

Effect of quantum fluctuations on structural phase transitions in SrTiO

Using path-integral Monte Carlo simulations and an ab initio effective Hamiltonian, we study the effects of quantum fluctuations on structural phase transitions in the cubic perovskite compounds SrTiO3 and BaTiO3 . We find quantum fluctuations affect ferroelectric ~FE! transitions more strongly than antiferrodistortive ~AFD! ones, even though the effective mass of a single FE local mode is larg...

High efficient Perovskite solar cells base on Niobium Doped TiO2 as a Buffer Layer

Here, the effect of lightly Niobium doped TiO2 layer on the performance of perovskite solar cells has been studied by using solar cell capacitance simulator (SCAPS). N addition, the effects of Niobium concentration, buffer film thickness and operating temperature on the performance of the perovskite solar cell are investigated. For doping level of 3.0 mol% into the TiO2 layer, cell efficiency o...
