The coherence length of the thermal electromagnetic field near a planar surface has a minimum value related to the nonlocal dielectric response of the material. We perform two model calculations of the electric energy density and the…
We extend to incremental thermoelectroelasticity with biasing fields certain classical theorems, that have been stated and proved in linear thermopiezoelectricity referred to a natural configuration. A uniqueness theorem for the solutions…
We present the results of the thermodynamic theory of piezoelectric ferroelectrics and of the phenomenological theory of thermodynamic characteristics of the KH$_{2}$PO$_{4}$ type ferroelectrics. Available experimental data for the…
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…
Pressure-induced polarization switching in ferroelectric thin films has emerged as a powerful method for domain patterning, allowing to create predefined domain patterns on free surfaces and under thin conductive top electrodes. However,…
Starting from second order around thermal equilibrium, the response of a statistical mechanical system to an external stimulus is not only governed by dissipation and depends explicitly on dynamical details of the system. The so called…
Periodic configurations of electrodes, in particular of microelectrodes, have been of interest since the advent of microfabrication. In this report, theory which is common to any periodic cell (or any cell that can be extended periodically)…
Theoretical analysis based on the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire (LGD) theory is used to show that the joint action of flexoelectric effect and rotostriction leads to a large spontaneous in-plane polarization (~ 1-5 muC/cm2) and pyroelectric…
The role of elastic defects on the kinetics of 180-degree uncharged ferroelectric domain wall motion is explored using continuum time-dependent LGD equation with elastic dipole coupling. In one dimensional case, ripples, steps and…
We discuss inertial effects in systems outside equilibrium within the framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. By introducing a Gibbs equation in which the entropy depends on the probability density, we are able to describe a system of…
In this study, we propose a theoretical framework to investigate the interactions between flexible polymer chains, specifically polyelectrolytes (PEs). By calculating the system's free energy while considering position-dependent mutual…
We describe the static dielectric response of ferroelastic-dielectric microcomposites. Its dependence on temperature, pressure and concentration is considered for smaller concentrations and for temperatures above the critical temperature.…
We study physical aspects for a new nonlinear electrodynamics (inverse electrodynamics). It is shown that this new electrodynamics displays the vacuum birefringence phenomenon in the presence of external magnetic field, hence we compute the…
Dielectric nano-swithes made of the materials that exhibit piezoelectric and/or flexoelectric properties with significant electro-mechanical coupling are considered. In this case, a nonuniform strain field may locally break inversion…
In the current density functional theory of linear and nonlinear time-dependent phenomena, the treatment of exchange and correlation beyond the level of the adiabatic local density approximation is shown to lead to the appearance of…
We calculate from first principles the nonlinear piezoelectric response of ferroelectric PbTiO3 for the case of a polarization-enhancing electric field applied along the tetragonal axis. We focus mainly on the case of fixed in-plane lattice…
A statistical mechanics expression is derived for the space-dependent dielectric permittivity of a polar solvent near an interface. The asymptotic behaviour of this local permittivity is calculated in the low density limit, near a planar…
We report an electric-field poling study of the geometric-driven improper ferroelectric h-ErMnO$_3$. From a detailed dielectric analysis we deduce the temperature and frequency dependent range for which single-crystalline h-ErMnO$_3$…
For the first time we proposed the model for the calculations of the relaxor ferroelectrics films properties in the framework of the random field theory. We took into account the misfit strain between film and substrate as well as surface…
We report piezo-response force microscopy studies of the static and dynamic properties of domain walls (DWs) in 11 to 36 nm thick films of crystalline ferroelectric poly(vinylidene-fluoride-trifluorethylene). The DW roughness exponent…
