We take a negative delta function impurity in one arm of a quasi one dimensional Aharonov-Bohm ring and demonstrate abrupt phase changes across a quasi bound state of the negative delta function potential. We give a new mechanism for…
Ferroelectric switching is unambigiously demonstrated for the first time in a III-V semiconductor based material: AlScN -- A discovery which could help to satisfy the urgent demand for thin film ferroelectrics with high performance and good…
Optical properties of a one-dimensional photonic structure consisting of Kerr-type nonlinear and magnetic layers under the action of an external static magnetic field in the Faraday geometry are investigated. The structure is a periodic…
The authors have investigated magnetic domain wall induced capacitance variation as a tool for the detection of magnetic reversal in magnetic nanowires for in-plane (NiFe) and out-of-plane (Co/Pd) magnetization configurations. The switching…
Ferroelastic materials (materials with switchable spontaneous strain) often are centrosymmetric, but their domain walls are always polar, as their internal strain gradients cause polarization via flexoelectricity. This polarization is…
Superconductivity was originally observed in 3D metals caused by an effective attraction between electrons mediated by the electron-phonon interaction. Since then there has been a lot of work on 2D conductors including the possibility of…
Hafnium dioxide (HfO2) is a CMOS-compatible ferroelectric showing both 180{\deg} and 90{\deg} switching, yet the microscopic nature of the 90{\deg} pathway remains unresolved. We show that the 90{\deg} rotation pathway, negligible in…
We discuss the emergence of low dimensional ferroelectricity in self-organized Pr0.67Ca0.33MnO3 nanocrystalline arrays deposited on Si substrate. We observe sharp switching of electric polarization under external electric eld with nearly…
The magnetic properties of anisotropic films have been studied using 3D-neutron polarization analysis. The experimental facts refer to essential distinction of the sample states, magnetized in opposite directions. For an explanation of…
Ferroelectric photovoltaics (FPVs) have drawn much attention owing to their high stability, environmental safety, anomalously high photovoltages, coupled with reversibly switchable photovoltaic responses. However, FPVs suffer from extremely…
We review the phenomenology of coupled magnetic and electric order parameters for systems in which ferroelectric and incommensurate magnetic order occur simultaneously. We discuss the role that such materials might play in fabricating novel…
In the paper we consider size effects of phase transitions and polar properties of the thin antiferroelectric films. We modified phenomenological approach proposed by Kittel. The Euler-Lagrange equations were solved by direct variational…
We present in-situ transmission electron microscopy observations of domain wall motion in thin freestanding potassium niobate single-crystals. We observe that not all domains of a given polarization orientation are equally switchable in…
Application of an electric stimulus to a material with a metal-insulator transition can trigger a large resistance change. Resistive switching from an insulating into a metallic phase, which typically occurs by the formation of conducting…
The equilibrium magnetization for layered superconducting films that experience a nonzero component, $H_{\parallel}$, of magnetic field applied parallel to the layers is computed at temperatures and at perpendicular field components in the…
Phase transitions in many-body systems are often associated with the emergence of spatial inhomogeneities. Such features may develop at microscopic lengthscales and are not necessarily evident in measurements of macroscopic quantities. In…
We investigated domain nucleation process in epitaxial Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 capacitors under a modified piezoresponse force microscope. We obtained domain evolution images during polarization switching process and observed that domain nucleation…
We theoretically investigate the effect of the negative differential conductance of a ferromagnetic barrier on the surface of a topological insulator. Due to the changes of the shape and position of the Fermi surfaces in the ferromagnetic…
The ability to switch between distinct states of polarization comprises the defining property of ferroelectrics. However, the microscopic mechanism responsible for switching is not well understood and theoretical estimates based on coherent…
We observe a thermally induced spontaneous magnetization reversal of epitaxial ferromagnet/antiferromagnet heterostructures under a constant applied magnetic field. Unlike any other magnetic system, the magnetization spontaneously reverses,…
