We study influence of image forces on conductance of ferroelectric tunnel junctions. We show that the influence of image forces is twofold: i) they enhance the electro-resistance effect due to polarization hysteresis in symmetric tunnel…
Stable and switchable polarization of ferroelectric materials opens a possibility to electrically control their functional behavior. A particularly promising approach is to employ ferroelectric tunnel junctions where the polarization…
We study interlayer exchange interaction in magnetic tunnel junctions with ferroelectric barrier. We focus on the influence of image forces on the voltage dependence of the interlayer magnetic interaction (magneto-electric effect). The…
The interplay between the electron transport in metal/ferroelectric/metal junctions with ultrathin ferroelectric barriers and the polarization state of a barrier is investigated. Using a model which takes into account screening of…
Electron transport through fully depleted ferroelectric tunnel barriers sandwiched between two metal electrodes and its dependence on ferroelectric polarization direction are investigated. The model assumes a polarization direction…
The ferroelectric (FE) control of electronic transport is one of the emerging technologies in oxide heterostructures. Many previous studies in FE tunnel junctions (FTJs) exploited solely the differences in the electrostatic potential across…
My research is dedicated to the electronic properties of functional oxides. My activity specifically focuses on ferroelectric tunnel junctions in which an ultrathin layer of ferroelectric material is intercalated between two metallic…
We present the concept of ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs). These junctions consist of two metal electrodes separated by a nanometer-thick ferroelectric barrier. The current-voltage characteristics of FTJs are analyzed under the…
Tunneling electroresistance (TER) effect is the change in the electrical resistance of a ferroelectric tunnel junction (FTJ) associated with polarization reversal in the ferroelectric barrier layer. Here we predict that a FTJ with a…
Tunneling Magnetoresistance between two ferrromagnets is an issue of fundamental importance in spintronics. In this work, we show that tunneling magnetoresistance can also emerge in junctions composed of ferromagnets and time-reversal…
We study the effect of image potential on spin polarized transport through Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions in the presence of symmetry filtering. The image potential is included within the Simmon's model coupled with the non-equilibrium…
We have carried out calculations of current-voltage characteristics for the electron tunnel current through a junction with a thin insulating ferroelectric barrier assuming that interface transmissions for the left and right interfaces…
In this paper, a theoretical approach, comprising the non-equilibrium Green's function method for electronic transport and Landau-Khalatnikov equation for electric polarization dynamics, is presented to describe polarization-dependent…
The influence of depolarizing field on the magnitude and stability of a uniform polarization in ferroelectric capacitors and tunnel junctions is studied using a nonlinear thermodynamic theory. It is predicted that, in heterostructures…
Based on the structure predicted in a ferroelectric tunnel junction in the resent density functional theory study, we investigate the electron transport through the FTJ with asymmetric interfaces, i.e., one interface dipole is pinned and…
We investigate the interplay of ferroelectricity and quantum electron transport at the nanoscale in the regime of Coulomb blockade. Ferroelectric polarization in this case is no longer the external parameter but should be self-consistently…
We theoretically study the spin-dependent transport in a ferromagnet/superconductor/ferro-magnet double barrier tunnel junction. The spin-polarized tunneling currents give rise to spin imbalance in the superconductor. The resulting…
In the light of the interest in the transport of single photons in arrays of waveguides, fiber couplers, photonic crystals, etc., we consider the quantum mechanical process of the tunneling of photons through evanescently or otherwise…
In tunnel junctions with ferroelectric barriers, switching the polarization direction modifies the electrostatic potential profile and the associated average tunnel barrier height. This results in strong changes of the tunnel transmission…
