Ferroelectric domain walls have emerged as a new type of interface in which the dynamic
characteristics of ferroelectricity introduce the element of spatial mobility, allowing real-time …

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

Designing superb dielectric capacitors is valuable but challenging since achieving
simultaneously large energy‐storage (ES) density and high efficiency is difficult. Herein, the …

The flexoelectricity describes the contribution of the linear couplings between the electric
polarization and strain gradient and between polarization gradient and strain to the …

Nanoscale ferroelectrics are expected to exhibit various exotic domain configurations, such
as the full flux-closure pattern that is well known in ferromagnetic materials. Here we …

Mechanoluminescence (ML) is the non-thermal emission of light as a response to
mechanical stimuli on a solid material. While this phenomenon has been observed for a …

Topological spin/polarization structures in ferroic materials continue to draw great attention
as a result of their fascinating physical behaviors and promising applications in the field of …

Large elastic nonlinearities can lead to elastic hysteresis behavior, which defines
ferroelasticity in analogy to its sister ferroics: ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity …

A domain wall‐enabled memristor is created, in thin film lithium niobate capacitors, which
shows up to twelve orders of magnitude variation in resistance. Such dramatic changes are …

Recent experimental and theoretical progress on the study of crackling noise in the plastic
deformation of crystals, ferroelastics, and porous materials is reviewed. We specifically point …
