Multiscaling analysis of ferroelectric domain wall roughness.
Using multiscaling analysis, we compare the characteristic roughening of ferroelectric domain walls in Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 thin films with numerical simulations of weakly pinned one-dimensional interfaces. Although at length scales up to L(MA)≥5 μm the ferroelectric domain walls behave similarly to the numerical interfaces, showing a simple monoaffine scaling (with a well-defined roughness expone...
متن کاملDomain wall roughness in epitaxial ferroelectric PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 thin films.
The static configuration of ferroelectric domain walls was investigated using atomic force microscopy on epitaxial PbZr(0.2)Ti(0.8)O(3) thin films. Measurements of domain wall roughness reveal a power-law growth of the correlation function of relative displacements B(L) alpha L(2zeta) with zeta approximately 0.26 at short length scales L, followed by an apparent saturation at large L. In the sa...
متن کاملNonvolatile ferroelectric domain wall memory
Ferroelectric domain walls are atomically sharp topological defects that separate regions of uniform polarization. The discovery of electrical conductivity in specific types of walls gave rise to "domain wall nanoelectronics," a technology in which the wall (rather than the domain) stores information. This paradigm shift critically hinges on precise nanoengineering of reconfigurable domain wall...
متن کاملA diode for ferroelectric domain-wall motion
For over a decade, controlling domain-wall injection, motion and annihilation along nanowires has been the preserve of the nanomagnetics research community. Revolutionary technologies have resulted, like racetrack memory and domain-wall logic. Until recently, equivalent research in analogous ferroic materials did not seem important. However, with the discovery of sheet conduction, the control o...
متن کاملA Domain Wall Model for Ferroelectric Hysteresis
This paper summarizes a mathematical model for characterizing hysteresis in ferroelectric materials. The model is based on the quanti cation of energy required to bend and translate domain walls and is developed in two steps. In the rst, the underlying anhysteretic polarization is quanti ed through constitutive equations derived using Boltzmann statistics. Three anhysteretic models are consider...
