Ferroelectric and ferroelastic domain walls are 2D topological defects with thicknesses
approaching the unit cell level. When this spatial confinement is combined with observations …

Pinned and mobile ferroelastic domain walls are detected in response to mechanical stress
in a Mn3+ complex with two-step thermal switching between the spin triplet and spin quintet …

Neuromorphic computation is based on memristors, which function equivalently to neurons
in brain structures. These memristors can be made more efficient and tailored to …

The filiform corrosion of Mg in NaCl solution was characterized by acoustic emission
spectroscopy, measurements of the free-corrosion potential, and optical observations under …

Twin dynamics forced by acoustic waves shows several linear and nonlinear response
modes below T c= 106 K. In the quantum paraelectric state a “quantum domain glass” at 25 …

Electric switching of non-polar bulk crystals is shown to occur when domain walls are polar
in ferroelastic materials and when rough surfaces with steps on an atomic scale promote …

Ferroelastic domains generate polarity near domain walls via the flexoelectric effect. Applied
electric fields change the wall dipoles and generate additional dipoles in the bulk. Molecular …

Domain walls have distinct properties from the bulk, and tailoring them to suit the needs for
device applications is critical. Tungsten trioxide, WO 3, is of great interest for device …

Magnetic ordering in Cu 2 OSeO 3 occurs without any detectable changes in the lattice
symmetry but involves significant coupling with strain. The strain coupling effects in Cu 2 …

Domain motion during ferroelectric switching has been recently suggested to follow scale-
invariant avalanche dynamics. An interesting question concerns the dynamics of ferroelastic …
