Switching dynamics and improved efficiency of free-standing antiferroelectric capacitors

Materials Science 2024-06-26 v1

Abstract

We report the switching dynamics of antiferroelectric Lead Zirconate (PbZrO3) free standing capacitors compared to their epitaxial counterparts. Frequency dependence of hysteresis indicates that freestanding capacitors exhibit a lower dispersion of switching fields, lower residual polarization, and faster switching response as compared to epitaxially-clamped capacitors. As a consequence, freestanding capacitor membranes exhibit better energy storage density and efficiency.
