To advance the use of thermally-activated magnetic materials in device applications it is necessary to examine their behaviour on the localised scale in operando conditions. Equi-atomic FeRh undergoes a magnetostructural transition from an…
Sb and Bi monolayers, as single-elemental ferroelectric materials with similar atomic structure, hold intrinsic piezoelectricity theoretically, which makes them highly promising for applications in functional nano-devices such as sensors…
Piezoelectrics are materials that linearly deform in response to an applied electric field. As a fundamental prerequisite, piezoelectric material must possess a non centrosymmetric crystal structure. For more than a century, this remains…
We uncover and identify the regime for a magnetically and ferroelectrically controllable negative refraction of light traversing multiferroic, oxide-based metastructure consisting of alternating nanoscopic ferroelectric (SrTiO$_2$) and…
The mechanical properties of nanostructured wires obtained by co-assembly of iron oxide particles are studied. The intrinsic magnetic properties of the wires are used to induce and quantify the bending of the one-dimensional objects. From…
Thin film alloys with perpendicular anisotropy were studied using Lorentz Transmission Electron Microscopy (LTEM). This work focuses on the configuration of domain walls and demonstrates the suitability and accuracy of LTEM for the magnetic…
Imaging of magnetic domains with a photoelectron emission microscope operated with photon energies in the threshold regime often suffers from low contrast. In this work we show by symmetry considerations, photoemission calculations, and…
We develop a general formalism for analyzing the ferromagnetic resonance characteristics of a magnetic dimer consisting of two magnetic elements (in a horizontal or vertical configuration) coupled by dipolar interaction, taking account of…
It has been well known that flexoelectricity can be exploited to generate an analogous piezoelectric response in non-piezoelectric materials. For the direct flexoelectric effect, the induced electric polarization is linearly proportional to…
We consider theoretically the properties of piezoelectricity in cholesteric elastomers. We deduce using symmetry considerations the piezoelectric contributions to the free energy in the context of a coarse-grained description of the…
A non-destructive technique for obtaining voltage contrast information with photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) is described. Samples consisting of electrically isolated metal lines were used to quantify voltage contrast in PEEM. The…

The analogy between magnetism and electricity has long been established by Maxwell in the 19th century, in spite of their subtle difference. While magnetic materials display paramagnetism, ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism, and…
Flexible piezoelectric devices made of polymeric materials are widely used for micro- and nano-electro-mechanical systems. In particular, numerous recent applications concern energy harvesting. Due to the importance of computational…
Recently experimental techniques, such as magnetic force microscopy (MFM), have enabled the magnetic state of individual sub-micron particles to be resolved. Motivated by these experimental developments, we use Monte Carlo simulations of…
Piezoresponse Force Spectroscopy (PFS) has emerged as a powerful tool for probing polarization dynamics on the nanoscale. Application of a dc bias to a nanoscale probe in contact with a ferroelectric surface results in the nucleation and…
Freestanding ferroelectric oxide membranes emerge as a promising platform for exploring the interplay between topological polar ordering and dipolar interactions that are continuously tunable by strain. Our investigations combining density…
