Atomic-scale ferroelectrics are of great interest for high-density electronics, particularly field-effect transistors, low-power logic, and nonvolatile memories. We devised a film with a layered structure of bismuth oxide that can stabilize…

The predicted physical properties of double perovskites have usually been compromised by their intrinsic B-antisite (AS) disorder effect, but the relationship between them is still unclear for the La2MnCoO6 (LMCO) system. This study focuses…

The epitaxial atomistic interfaces of two insulating oxides, LaAlO$_3$ (LAO)/SrTiO$_3$ (STO), have attracted great interest owing to rich emergent phenomena \cite{hwang12:nmat,coey13:mrs,ohtomo04:} such as interface metallicity…

We report multiferroic behavior in double perovskite Y2CoMnO6 with ferroelectric transition temperature Tc = 80K. The origin of ferroelectricity is associated with magnetic ordering of Co2+ and Mn4+ moments in a up-up-down-down arrangement.…

Thin films of HfO2 doped with 4% La were fabricated on LSMO/STO (100) substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The stability of the ferroelectric orthorhombic phase in the hafnia films was investigated with respect to varying oxygen…

We identify a first-order, isosymmetric transition between a ferrielectric (FiE) and ferroelectric (FE) state in $A$-site ordered LaScO$_{3}$/BiScO$_{3}$ and LaInO$_{3}$/BiInO$_{3}$ superlattices. Such a previously unreported ferroic…

Thin films of (1-x)BiFeO₃-xPbTiO₃ (BF-xPT) with x ~ 0.60 were fabricated on Pt/Si substrates by chemical solution deposition of precursor BF and PT layers alternately in three different multilayer configurations. These…

Recent interests towards novel functionalities arising at domain walls of ferroic materials naturally call for a microscopic understanding. To this end, first-principles calculations have been performed in order to provide solid evidence of…

The double perovskite La2NiMnO6 (LNMO) exhibits complex magnetism due to the competition of magnetic interactions that are strongly affected by structural and magnetic inhomogeneities. In this work, we study the effect of oxygen annealing…

We theoretically investigate the influence of internal and external strain on topological phases in (LaNiO$_3$)$_2$/(LaAlO$_3$)$_N$ heterostructures grown along the [111] direction. At the Hartree-Fock level, topological phases originate…

Whereas ferroelectricity may vanish in ultra-thin ferroelectric films, it is expected to emerge in ultra-thin anti-ferroelectric films, sparking people's interest in using antiferroelectric materials as an alternative to ferroelectric ones…

Density functional methods have been used to study the crystal, electronic and magnetic structures of new ordered double perovskites A2NRuO6 (A2 = Ba2, BaLa; N = V, Cr, Fe). In the doped compounds, the A-site was replaced by 1:1 of Ba and…

PbTiO$_3$ is a simple but very important ferroelectric oxide that has been extensively studied and widely used in various technological applications. However, most previous studies and applications were based on the bulk material or the…

We use first-principles calculations based on density functional theory to investigate the interplay between oxygen vacancies, A-site cation size / tolerance factor, epitaxial strain, ferroelectricity and magnetism in the perovskite…

The synthesis of the double perovskite Sr2FeWO6 through the direct combustion technique is reported. A complete characterization of the crystalline structure is performed from Synchrotron X-ray measurements and subsequent Rietveld analysis.…

An emerging area in condensed matter physics is the use of multilayered heterostructures to enhance ferroelectricity in complex oxides. Here, we demonstrate that optically pumping carriers across the interface between thin films of a…

Charge-order-driven ferroelectrics are an emerging class of functional materials, distinct from conventional ferroelectrics, where electron-dominated switching can occur at high frequency. Despite their promise, only a few systems…

Since its discovery, ferroelectric hafnia has been extensively studied due to its CMOS-compatibility and ability to remain polarized at sub-10 nm thicknesses. The ferroelectric behaviour is generally attributed to a polar orthorhombic…

The direct magnetoelectric (ME) effect mediated by lattice strains induced in a ferroelectric film by a ferromagnetic substrate is evaluated using first-principles-based calculations. To that end, the strain sensitivity of ferroelectric…
