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…
By assuming a more realistic nucleation and polarization reversal scenario we build a new statistical switching model for ferroelectrics, which is different from either the Kolmogorov-Avrami-Ishibashi (KAI) model or the…
Electric field plays an important role in ferroelectric phase transition. There have been numerous phase field formulations attempting to account for electrostatic interactions subject to different boundary conditions. In this paper, we…
Interfacial ferroelectricity emerges in heterostructures consisting of nonpolar van der Waals (vdW) layers, greatly expanding the scope of two dimensional ferroelectrics. In particular, the unconventional moire ferroelectricity observed in…
Over the past decades, the relentless scaling and mass production of flash memory have underpinned the data-centric era. Yet charge-trap-based 3D NAND flash is now constrained by intrinsic physical and architectural limits, including…
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.…
The challenge of achieving ultrafast switching of electric polarization in ferroelectric materials remains unsolved, as there is no experimental evidence of such switching to date. In this study, we have developed an enhanced model that…

Standing on successful first principles predictions for new functional ferroelectric materials, a number of new ferroelectrics have been experimentally discovered. Utilizing trilinear coupling of two types of octahedron rotations, hybrid…
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dinitride (HfN2) has been studied for their optoelectronic, piezoelectric, and thermoelectric properties. Both monolayer and bilayer of HfN2 were studied using density functional theory (DFT) and…
Twistronics rooted in the twist operation towards bilayer van der Waals crystals is of both theoretical and technological importance. The realize of the correlated electronic behaviors under this operation encourages enormous effort to the…

Spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at oxide interfaces is an emerging physical phenomenon, which is technologically important for potential device applications. However, most previous relevant studies only focused on the…
Ferroelectric polarization switching underpins the functional performance of a wide range of materials and devices, yet its dependence on complex local microstructural features renders systematic exploration by manual or grid-based…
Out-of-plane and in-plane electric polarization, which rarely coexist in a two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric material, offer different advantages in ferroelectricity-based devices. Here, we report the coexistence of in-plane and…
Recently, coexisting ferroelectricity and superconductivity were reported in bilayer T$_{\textrm{d}}$-MoTe$_2$ and twisted bilayer graphene. Importantly, it was observed that an applied displacement field switches the superconductivity with…
