A multiple-time scaling analysis of the dissipative, transversely driven Landau-Lifshitz equation in presence of exchange, shape demagnetisation and week anisotropy fields is performed for a dynamic domain state. Stationary solutions of the…
We report a theoretical investigation of a charged 180$^\circ$ domain wall in ferroelectric PbTiO$_3$, compensated by randomly distributed immobile charge defects. For this we utilize atomistic shell-model simulations and continuous…
Although enhanced conductivity at ferroelectric domain boundaries has been found in BiFeO$_3$ films, Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$ films, and hexagonal rare-earth manganite single crystals, the mechanism of the domain wall conductivity is still under…
We study a system of Dirac electrons with finite density of charge carriers coupled to an external electromagnetic field in two spatial dimensions, with a domain wall (DW) mass term. The interface between a thin-film ferromagnet and a…
A Ginzburg-Landau model is used to demonstrate how depletion layers give rise to thickness-dependent ferroelectric properties in thin films. It is shown that free charge layers at the film-electrode interface can result in an internal…
${\rm SrRuO_3}$ is a 4d itinerant ferromagnet (T$_{c}$ $\sim $150 K) with stripe domain structure. Using high-quality thin films of SrRuO$_{3}$ we study the resistivity induced by its very narrow ($\sim 3$ nm) Bloch domain walls,…
We microscopically derive transport equations for the conduction electrons in ferromagnetic materials with an inhomogeneous magnetization profile. Our quantum kinetic approach includes elastic scattering and anisotropic spin-flip scattering…
Ferroelectrics usually adopt a multi-domain state with domain walls separating domains with polarization axes oriented differently. It has long been recognized that domain walls can dramatically impact the properties of ferroelectric…
Recent analytical and numerical work on field driven domain wall propagation in nanowires has shown that for large transverse anisotropy and sufficiently large applied fields the Walker profile becomes unstable before the breakdown field,…
NdFeAs(O,F) thin films having different fluorine contents were grown on 5 deg. or 10 deg. vicinal cut MgO and CaF2 single crystalline substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. Structural characterisations by reflection high-energy electron…
The mean-field Landau-type theory is used to analyze the polarization properties of epitaxial ferroelectric thin films grown on dissimilar cubic substrates, which induce biaxial compressive stress in the film plane. The intrinsic effect of…
Domain structures play a crucial role in the electric, mechanical and other properties of ferroelectric materials. In this study, we uncover the physical origins of the enigmatic zigzag domain structure in the prototypical multiferroic…
We present a phenomenological theory of altermagnets, that captures their unique magnetization dynamics and allows modelling magnetic textures in this new magnetic phase. Focusing on the prototypical d-wave altermagnets, e.g. RuO$_2$, we…
ThCr$_2$Si$_2$-type intermetallics are layered conductors in which crystallographic anisotropy and multiband electronic states often give rise to characteristic magnetotransport phenomena. Here, we report the molecular-beam epitaxy growth…
The formation of a two-dimensional electron gas at oxide interfaces as a consequence of polar discontinuities has generated an enormous amount of activity due to the variety of interesting effects it gives rise to. Here we study under what…
Previous experiments with BaTiO$_3$ single crystals have shown that application of the electric field in the vicinity of the ferroelectric phase transition can be used to introduce peculiar persisting ferroelectric domain walls, accompanied…
We investigate the dynamics of spin in the axially anisotropic Landau--Lifshitz field theory with a magnetic domain wall initial condition. Employing the analytic scattering technique, we obtain the exact scattering data and reconstruct the…
Local conduction at domains and domains walls is investigated in BiFeO3 thin films containing mostly 71o domain walls. Measurements at room temperature reveal conduction through 71o domain walls. Conduction through domains could also be…
Antiferromagnets have recently been propelled to the forefront of spintronics by their high potential for revolutionizing memory technologies. For this, understanding the formation and driving mechanisms of the domain structure is…
We establish theoretically that in nonmagnetic semiconducting bilayer or multilayer thin film systems rolled up into compact quasi-one-dimensional nanoarchitectures, the ballistic magnetoresistance is very anisotropic: conductances depend…
