Ferroelectricity usually fades away when materials are thinned down below a critical value. Employing the first-principles density functional theory and modern theory of polarization, we show that the unique ionic-potential anharmonicity…

Smart electronic circuits that support neuromorphic computing on the hardware level necessitate materials with memristive, memcapacitive, and neuromorphic-like functional properties; in short, the electronic response must depend on the…

Ferroelectric materials exhibit a switchable, spontaneous polarization at the unit cell level--an attractive property utilized in many emerging technologies including, among others, high-density memory storage, low-power transistors, and…

Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric semiconductors present opportunities for integrating ferroelectrics into high-density ultrathin nanoelectronics. Among the few synthesized 2D ferroelectrics, $\alpha$-In$_2$Se$_3$, known for its…

For $\rm Sn_2P_2S_6$ ferroelectrics by first-principles calculations an analysis of the $\rm P_2S_6$ cluster electronic structure and their comparison with crystal valence band in paraelectric and ferroelectric phases has been done and the…

We propose a theoretical model of a ferroelectric metal where spontaneous electric polarization coexists with the conducting electrons. In our model we adopt a scenario when conducting electrons interact with two soft transverse optical…

The polarization function of electrons with the tilted Dirac cone found in organic conductors is studied using the tilted Weyl equation. The dynamical property is explored based on the analytical treatment of the particle-hole excitation.…

Ferroelectricity and metallicity are usually believed not to coexist because conducting electrons would screen out static internal electric fields. In 1965, Anderson and Blount proposed the concept of 'ferroelectric metal', however, it is…

Molecular ferroelectrics have captured immense attention due to their superiority over inorganic oxide ferroelectrics, such as environmentally friendly, low-cost, flexible, foldable. However, the mechanisms of ferroelectric switching and…

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…

Twisted heterostructures of two-dimensional crystals offer almost unlimited scope for the design of novel metamaterials. Here we demonstrate a room-temperature ferroelectric semiconductor that is assembled using mono- or few- layer MoS2.…

Superionic conductors offer unique advantages for novel technological devices in various fields, such as energy storage and neuromorphic computing. Above 414 K, Cu2Se turns into a well-known superionic conductor via a phase transition, and…

We show that the electric polarization at the interface with ultrathin superconducting (S) films sandwiched between ferroelectric (FE) layers allows achievement of substantially stronger modulation of inner carrier density and…

There are very few materials in which ferromagnetism coexists with superconductivity due to the destructive effect of the magnetic exchange field on singlet Cooper pairs. The iron-based superconductor EuFe$_2$(As$_{1-x}$P$_x$)$_2$ is…

The low-dimensional ferroelectrics, ferrielectrics and antiferroelectrics are of urgent scientific interest due to their unusual polar, piezoelectric, electrocaloric and pyroelectric properties. The strain engineering and strain control of…
