Controlled Charging of Ferroelastic Domain Walls in Oxide Ferroelectrics

Li Jin, Tomas Sluka, Ludwig Feigl, Xiankui Wei, Barbara Maraston Fraygola

Conductive domain walls (DWs) in ferroic oxides as device elements are a highly attractive research topic because of their robust and agile response to electric field. Charged DWs possessing metallic-type conductivity hold the highest promises in this aspe ...

Strain Engineering of Electrical Conductivity in Epitaxial Thin Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 Film Heterostructures

Nava Setter, Sarunas Bagdzevicius, Barbara Maraston Fraygola

Thin epitaxial films have a great potential to be used in real life applications, such as oxide-on-silicon. However, they often contain a large amount of defects, leading to an enhanced electrical conductivity. This could be desirable in some applications ...

Effect of Magnetic Ion Doping on Structural, Electric and Relaxor Properties of Pb (Fe2/3W1/3) O-3 Multiferroic Ceramics

Barbara Maraston Fraygola

Single-phase Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3 (PFW) multiferroic ceramics doped with magnetic ions were fabricated using a modified B-site precursor method. Dielectric response was investigated over a wide range of temperature and frequency. Doping did not modify the chara ...

Solid Solutions of Lead Metaniobate-Stabilization of the Ferroelectric Polymorph and the Effect on the Lattice Parameters, Dielectric, Ferroelectric, and Piezoelectric Properties

Dragan Damjanovic, Nava Setter, Alberto Biancoli, Mtabazi Geofrey Sahini, Barbara Maraston Fraygola

Ferroelectric orthorhombic lead metaniobate (PbNb2O6) is known to be metastable with respect to the thermodynamically stable nonferroelectric rhombohedral polymorph. The high-temperature tetragonal to low temperature rhombohedral phase transition is recons ...
