Abstract Domain walls and phase boundaries are fundamental ingredients of ferroelectrics
and strongly influence their functional properties. Although both interfaces have been …

In this study, nano-BaTiO3 (BTO) powders were obtained via the solvothermal method at
different reaction times and were investigated using transmission electron microscopy …

Mechanical displacement in commonly used piezoelectric materials is typically restricted to
linear or biaxial in nature and to a few percent of the material dimensions. Here, we show …

Ferroelectrics, due to their polar nature and reversible switching, can be used to dynamically
control surface chemistry for catalysis, chemical switching, and other applications such as …

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) and its derivatives, which belong to the family of perovskite oxides,
offer a class of lead (Pb)-free ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials with numerous …

(1-x)(Ba0. 75Sr0. 1Bi0. 1)(Ti0. 9Zr0. 1) O3-x (Sb0. 5Li0. 5) TiO3 (abbreviated as BSBiTZ-
xSLT, x= 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1) ceramics were prepared via a conventional solid-state …

The insulator-to-metal transition upon the thermal reduction of perovskites is a well-known
yet not completely understood phenomenon. By combining different surface-sensitive …

Ferroelectric materials are the core of common technologies, such as medical ultrasound,
mobile-phone antennae and low-power memory devices. The technological interest in …

Nanoscale devices that utilize oxygen vacancies in two-dimensional metal-oxide structures
garner much attention due to conductive, magnetic, and even superconductive …

Interfaces at the two-dimensional limit in oxide materials exhibit a wide span of functionality
that differs significantly from the bulk behavior. Among such interfaces, domain walls in …
