The proton ordering model of the phase transition and physical properties of antiferroelectric crystals of squaric acid is modified by taking into account the influence of diagonal lattice strains and of the local geometry of hydrogen…
The analytical solution is considered for the phenomenological theory of the second order ferroelectric or ferroelastic phase transition in a thin film with arbitrary boundary conditions. The general phase-plane portrait for the relevant…
In this article, we motivate the detailed comparison of the physical properties of individual configurations of a ferroelectric solid solution as a means toward developing first principles models for these systems. We compare energies,…
Electronic ferroelectricity from charge ordering (CO) is currently a significant issue that has been extensively investigated in the charge/spin frustrated LuFe2O4 system. Chemical substitution and structural layer intercalation have been…
We identify the bosonic excitations in ferroelectrics that carry electric dipoles from the phenomenological Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire theory. The "ferron" quasi-particles emerge from the concerted action of anharmonicity and broken…

By means of first-principles simulations, we unambiguously show that improper ferroelectricity in magnetite in the low-temperature insulating phase is driven by charge-ordering. An accurate comparison between monoclinic ferroelectric Cc and…

When subjected to electro-mechanical loading, ferroelectrics see their polarization evolve through the nucleation and evolution of domains. Existing mesoscale phase-field models for ferroelectrics are typically based on a gradient-descent…
