In order to investigate the effects of in-plane strain on the superconductivity of FeSe, epitaxial thin films of FeSe were fabricated on CaF$_2$ substrates. The films are compressed along the a-axis and their superconducting transition…

The strain dependence of electric and magnetic properties has been widely investigated, both from a fundamental science perspective and an applications point of view. Electromechanical coupling through field-induced polarization rotation…

We have performed an {\it in-situ} photoemission study of Pr_{1-x}Ca_xMnO_3 (PCMO) thin films grown on LaAlO_3 (001) substrates and observed the effect of epitaxial strain on the electronic structure. We found that the chemical potential…

Monte Carlo simulations with an effective Hamiltonian parametrized from first principles are performed to study the dielectric response of BaTiO3 as a function of temperature, with particular emphasis on the behavior of the dielectric…

This paper reports on the temperature evolution of local elastic interactions between ferromagnetic CoFe films and ferroelectric BaTiO3 substrates. Polarization microscopy measurements indicate that growth-induced stripe domains in the CoFe…

The NiTi shape memory alloy exhibited excellent superelastic property and elastocaloric effect. Large temperature changes of 30 K upon loading and -19 K upon unloading were obtained at room temperature, which were higher than those of the…

Using the Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, we determined the electronic and magnetic properties of a T-phase VS$_2$ bilayer as a function of tensile and compressive strain. First, we determine the ground state structural…

The multiferroic properties of EuTiO3 are greatly enhanced when a sample is strained, signifying that coupling between strain and structural, magnetic or ferroelectric order parameters is extremely important. Here resonant ultrasound…

The control of optical fields is usually achieved through the electro-optic or acousto-optic effect in single-crystal ferroelectric or polar compounds such as LiNbO3 or quartz. In recent years, tremendous progress has been made in…

For the first time we proposed the model for the calculations of the relaxor ferroelectrics films properties in the framework of the random field theory. We took into account the misfit strain between film and substrate as well as surface…

The present work deals with the study of structural, ferroelectric, dielectric and electro-caloric effects in lead free ferroelectric polycrystalline Ba1-xCaxTi0.95Sn0.05O3 (x= 2, 5 and 10 %) i.e., Ca, Sn co-doped BaTiO3 (BTO). Phase purity…

In this paper, a theoretical journey from electronic to magneto-caloric effect has been shown through the magnetic properties of aluminium induced yttrium chromate. The ground state electronic band structure and density of states have been…

We report on a systematic study of the temperature-dependent Hall coefficient and thermoelectric power in ultra-thin metallic LaNiO$_3$ films that reveal a strain-induced, self-doping carrier transition that is inaccessible in the bulk. As…

Magneto-transport properties of SrIrO$_3$ thin films epitaxially grown on SrTiO$_3$, using reactive RF sputtering, are investigated. A large anisotropy between the in-plane and the out-of-plane resistivities is found, as well as a signature…

One of central issues in iron-based superconductors is the role of structural change to the superconducting transition temperature (T_c). It was found in FeSe that the lattice strain leads to a drastic increase in T_c, accompanied by…

We use molecular dynamics with a first-principles-based shell model potential to study the electrocaloric effect (ECE) in lithium niobate, LiNbO$_3$, and find a giant electrocaloric effect along a line passing through the ferroelectric…

We have investigated the Co-doping dependence of the structural, transport, and magnetic properties of \epsilon-FeCoSi epilayers grown by molecular beam epitaxy on silicon (111) substrates. Low energy electron diffraction, atomic force…

Ferroelectric materials such as BaTiO3 exhibit spontaneous polarization that can be reoriented by an external electric field, forming the basis of various memory, actuator, and sensor applications. The polarization switching behavior,…

We report the observation that thermoelectric thin-films of La-doped SrTiO3 grown on SrTiO3 substrates yield anomalously high values of thermopower to give extraordinary values of power factor at 300K. Thin-films of Sr0.98La0.02TiO3, grown…

Applying external strain is an efficient way to manipulate the site preference of dopants in semiconductors, however, the validity of the previous continuum elastic model for the strain influence on the doping forma- tion energy is still…
