A detailed investigation of the out-of-plane electrical properties of charge-ordered alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 provides clear evidence for ferroelectricity. Similar to multiferroic alpha-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu[N(CN)2]Cl, the polar order in this material…
Large electron-electron Coulomb-interactions in correlated systems can lead to a periodic arrangement of localized electrons, the so called "charge-order". The latter is here proposed as a driving force behind ferroelectricity in iron…
The bistability of charge polarization in ferroelectric materials has long been the basis of ferroelectric devices. However, the ferroelectricity tends to be vanishing as the thickness of materials is reduced to a few nanometers or thinner…
Using the self-consistent Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach we simulate and analyze the spontaneous formation of the domain structure in thin ferroelectric films covered with the surface screening charge of the specific nature…
Polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) is a ferroelectric polymer characterized by negative strain along the direction of the applied electric field. However, the electromechanical response mechanism of PVDF remains unclear due to the complexity…
The low-temperature phase diagram of multilayer graphene heterostructures is largely defined by the exchange-driven instability that lifts the four-fold isospin degeneracy. Such instability gives rise to the quarter- and half-metal phases,…
Vertical ferroelectricity where a net dipole moment appears as a result of in-plane ionic displacements has gained enormous attention following its discovery in transition metal dichalcogenides. Based on first-principles calculations, we…
In present work we calculated the three components of polarization in phenomenological theory framework by consideration of three Euler-Lagrange equations, which include mismatch effect and influence of misfit dislocations, surface…
Structural, electronic, ferroelectric, and optical properties of two-dimensional (2D) BiN monolayer material with phosphorene-like structure are studied in terms of the density functional theory and modern Berry phase ferroelectric method.…
Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations were used to evaluate polarity of group III nitrides, such as aluminum nitride (AlN), gallium nitride (GaN) and indium nitride (InN) providing physically sound quantitative measure of polarity of…
The effect of external static charging on borophenes - 2D boron crystals - is investigated by using first principles calculations. The influence of the excess negative charge on the stability of the 2D structures is examined using a very…
From monolayers composed of different atoms, we can build structures with spontaneous vertical polarization by conveniently stacking multiple layers. We have studied, using first-principles methods and based on modern polarization theory, a…
Bismuth ferrite is one of the most widely studied multiferroic materials because of its large ferroelectric polarisation coexisting with magnetic order at room temperature. Using density functional theory (DFT), we identify several…
Domain structure of a fluid ferroelectric nematic is dramatically different from the domain structure of solid ferroelectrics since it is not restricted by rectilinear crystallographic axes and planar surface facets. We demonstrate that…
In this work, we use density functional theory calculations to demonstrate how spontaneous electric polarizations can be induced \textit{via} a hybrid improper ferroelectric mechanism in iodide perovskites, a family well-known to display…
We consider the flow of polarization current J(t)=dP/dt produced by a homogeneous electric field E(t) or by rapidly varying some other parameter in the Hamiltonian of a solid. For an initially insulating system and a collisionless time…
Ferroelectricity, a spontaneous and reversible electric polarization, is found in certain classes of van der Waals (vdW) material heterostructures. The discovery of ferroelectricity in twisted vdW layers provides new opportunities to…
Proximity ferroelectricity is a novel paradigm for inducing ferroelectricity in a non-ferroelectric polar material such as AlN or ZnO that are typically unswitchable with an external field below their dielectric breakdown field. When placed…
Ferroelectricity, a hallmark of spontaneous inversion-symmetry breaking, has been a central concept in condensed matter physics and functional materials research, yet recent discoveries are revealing that switchable polarization can emerge…
We present a density functional theory investigation of strained Ca$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$. We have determined the structure and polarization for a number of arrangements of Ca and Sr in a 2$\times$2$\times$2 supercell. The a and b…
