We investigate a model of excitonic ordering (i.e electron-hole pair condensation) appropriate for the divalent hexaborides. We show that the inclusion of imperfectly nested electron hole Fermi surfaces can lead to the formation of an…
Electron-doped infinite-layer Sr$_{1-x}$Eu$_{x}$CuO$_{2+y}$ films over a wide doping range have been prepared epitaxially on SrTiO$_3$(001) using reactive molecular beam epitaxy. In-plane transport measurements of the single crystalline…
We provide a phenomenological formula which describes the low-frequency optical absorption of charge carriers in disordered systems with localization. This allows to extract, from experimental data on the optical conductivity, the relevant…
HfO$_2$-based ferroelectrics have emerged as promising materials for advanced nanoelectronics, with their robust polarization and silicon compatibility making them ideal for high-density, non-volatile memory applications. Oxygen vacancies,…
With the broad recent research on ferroelectric hafnium oxide for non-volatile memory technology, depolarization effects in HfO2-based ferroelectric devices gained a lot of interest. Understanding the physical mechanisms regulating the…
We introduce a model to explain the observed ferromagnetism and superconductivity in LAO/STO oxide interface structures. Due to the polar catastrophe mechanism, 1/2 charge per unit cell is transferred to the interface layer. We argue that…
We present $ab$ $initio$ study of the electronic stopping power of protons and helium ions in an insulating material, HfO$_{2}$. The calculations are carried out in channeling conditions with different impact parameters by employing…
We study conductivity of strongly disordered amorphous antimony films under high bias voltages. We observe non-linear current-voltage characteristic, where the conductivity value at zero bias is one of two distinct values, being determined…
We investigated the unoccupied part of the electronic structure of the oxygen-deficient hafnium oxide (HfO$_{\sim1.8}$) using soft x-ray absorption spectroscopy at O $K$ and Hf $N_3$ edges. Band-tail states beneath the unoccupied Hf 5$d$…
We calculated the optical excitation and thermal ionization energies of oxygen vacancies in m-HfO$_2$ using atomic basis sets, a non-local density functional and periodic supercell. The thermal ionization energies of negatively charged…
We propose a model for explaining the recent results obtained by J. Schon et al (1,2) on transport properties of electrons and holes in one plane of CuO2 in a layered cuprate (CaCuO2) where the carriers are created using a field effect…
In the quest of green energy, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) have drawn considerable attention for chemical-to-electric energy conversion. In the present paper, we report an enhancement of ionic conductivity in Cu2P2-xVxO7 by vanadium…
The low-energy electronic Hamiltonian for the thinest zigzag carbon nanotube, embedded into a dielectric host, is derived and its phase diagram is discussed. The specific multi-band structure and the microscopic form of the…
Mastery of order-disorder processes in highly non-equilibrium nanostructured oxides has significant implications for the development of emerging energy technologies. However, we are presently limited in our ability to quantify and harness…
In hafnia-based thin-film ferroelectric devices, chemical phenomena during growth and processing such as oxygen vacancy formation and interfacial reactions appear to strongly affect device performance. However, the nanoscale structure,…
Hafnium oxide (HfO2), particularly at low-dimensional scales, exhibits extensive promising applications in ultrahigh density devices like low-power logic and non-volatile memory devices due to its compatibility with current semiconductor…
The degradation of ultrathin oxide layers in the presence of a stress voltage is modeled in terms of two antagonist percolation processes taking place in a random resistor network. The resistance and leakage current fluctuations are studied…
It is generally assumed that oxygen potential in a thin oxide electrolyte follows a linear distribution between electrodes. Jacobsen and Mogensen have shown, however, that this is not the case for thin zirconia membranes in solid oxide…
Ferroelectrics and ionic conductors are important functional materials, each supporting a plethora of applications in information and energy technology. The underlying physics governing their functional properties is ionic motion, and yet…
Properties of oxides are interpreted as a result of existence of the virtual sublattices formed by the atomic quantum states. An infinite cluster with the superconductivity of the Bose-Einstein condensate kind can be formed in the ground…
