An overview of the state of art in ferroelectric thin films is presented. First, we review
applications: microsystems' applications, applications in high frequency electronics, and …

There has been a resurgence of complex oxides of late owing to their ferroelectric and
ferromagnetic properties. Although these properties had been recognized decades ago, the …

Strain engineering enables modification of the properties of thin films using the stress from
the substrates on which they are grown. Strain may be relaxed, however, and this can also …

With much excitement and great enthusiasm I introduce this thorough treatise on the major
aspects of domain and domain wall phenomena in ferroics, mostly ferroelectrics, a major …

An invaluable resource for industrial science and engineering newcomers to sputter
deposition technology in thin film production applications, this book is rich in coverage of …

Dielectric capacitors have the highest charge/discharge speed among all electrical energy
devices, but lag behind in energy density. Here we report dielectric ultracapacitors based on …

Transition metal perovskite oxide membranes and their unique properties have attracted
great attention recently and have been developed into one of the research frontiers in …

The domain structures in a ferroelectric thin film are studied using a phase-field model. A
cubic-to-tetragonal ferroelectric phase transition in lead titanate thin film is considered. Both …

Efficient and stable catalysts for ammonia synthesis under mild conditions are required to
meet the strong demand for NH3 as an important precursor chemical and hydrogen carrier …

Abstract A Landau-Ginsburg-Devonshire-type nonlinear phenomenological theory is
presented, which enables the thermodynamic description of dense laminar polydomain …
