Ferroelectric-dielectric superlattices have attracted renewed interest for their ability to
frustrate the polar order, leading to the emergence of exotic polar textures. The electrostatic …

The high domain wall mobility in ferroelectric multidomain state superlattices contributes to
an enhancement of the dielectric permittivity and can locally over-respond to an applied …

The interfaces of polar systems come with new electronic properties unique from the oxides
they border due to the screening from either internal or external sources of charge. The …

At low temperatures, uniaxial perovskites exhibit a spontaneous polarization with a
permanent dipole moment. The broken symmetry state involves an order parameter and …

This work focuses on complex-oxide superlattices as a pathway to numerous forms of
emergent phenomena due to strong interfacial interactions present in unit-cell precise …
