Design of high polarization low switching barrier hybrid improper ferroelectric perovskite oxide superlattices

Journal Article Swamynadhan, M. J. ; Ghosh, Ayana ; Ghosh, Saurabh - Materials Horizons

Hybrid improper ferroelectricity is a useful tool to design ABO₃/A'BO₃ polar superlattices from non polar building blocks. In this study, we have designed high polarization-low switching barrier hybrid improper ferroelectric superlattices with efficient polarization, and polarization-magnetization switching properties above room temperature, using density functional theory and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. Superlattices with a chemical formula of (AAlO₃)_m/(A'AlO₃)_n, where m/n = 1/1, 1/3, 3/1, 1/5 and 5/1, A, A' = Lanthanide and Y cations are considered to outline the design principles behind polarization switching and (LaFeO₃)₃/(CeFeO₃)₁ is investigated for polarization-magnetization switching. We find that the unconventional switching paths via out-of-phasemore »« less

Ferroelectric Self-Polarization Controlled Magnetic Stratification and Magnetic Coupling in Ultrathin La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃ Films

Journal Article Liu, Chao ; Liu, Yaohua ; Zhang, Bangmin ; ... - ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces

Multiferroic oxide heterostructures consisting of ferromagnetic and ferroelectric components hold the promise for nonvolatile magnetic control via ferroelectric polarization, advantageous for the low-dissipation spintronics. Modern understanding of the magnetoelectric coupling in these systems involves structural, orbital, and magnetic reconstructions at interfaces. Previous works have long proposed polarization-dependent interfacial magnetic structures; however, direct evidence is still missing, which requires advanced characterization tools with near-atomic-scale spatial resolutions. Here, extensive polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) studies have determined the magnetic depth profiles of PbZr_0.2Ti_0.8O₃/La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃ (PZT/LSMO) bilayers with opposite self-polarizations. When the LSMO is 2–3 nm thick, the bilayers show two magnetic transitions on cooling.more »« less

Asymmetric Character of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition and Charged Domain Walls in a Hybrid Improper Ferroelectric

Journal Article Weber, Mads C. ; Zemp, Yannik ; Trassin, Morgan ; ... - Advanced Electronic Materials

Abstract In improper ferroelectrics, the spontaneous ordering is typically driven by a structural distortion or a magnetic spin alignment. The induced electric polarization is only a secondary effect. This dependence is a rich source for unusual phenomena and ferroelectric domain configurations for proper, polarization‐driven ferroelectrics. This study focuses on the polar domain structure and the hysteretic behavior at the ferroelectric phase transition in Ca ₃ Mn _1.9 Ti _0.1 O ₇ as a representative of the recently discovered hybrid improper ferroelectric class of multiferroics. Combining optical second harmonic generation and Raman spectroscopy gives access to the spontaneous structural distortion andmore »« less

Hybrid improper ferroelectricity in Ruddlesden-Popper Ca{sub 3}(Ti,Mn){sub 2}O{sub 7} ceramics

Journal Article Liu, X. Q., E-mail: xqliu@zju.edu.cn, E-mail: xmchen59@zju.edu.cn ; Wu, J. W. ; Shi, X. X. ; ... - Applied Physics Letters

The hybrid improper ferroelectricity (HIF) has been proposed as a promising way to create multiferroic materials with strong magnetoelectric coupling by the first-principle calculation, and the experimental evidences of HIF in Ruddlesden-Poper Ca{sub 3}(Ti{sub 1−x}Mn{sub x}){sub 2}O{sub 7} (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15) ceramics have been shown in the present work. The room temperature ferroelectric hysteresis loops are observed in these ceramics, and a polar orthorhombic structure with two oxygen tilting modes has been confirmed by the X-ray powder diffraction. A first-order phase transition around 1100 K in Ca{sub 3}Ti{sub 2}O{sub 7} was evidenced, and the temperatures of phase transitions decreasemore »« less

Octahedral rotation patterns in strained ${EuFeO}_{3}$ and other Pbnm perovskite films: Implications for hybrid improper ferroelectricity

Journal Article Choquette, A. K. ; Smith, C. R. ; Sichel-Tissot, R. J. ; ... - Physical Review B

Here, we report the relationship between epitaxial strain and the crystallographic orientation of the in-phase rotation axis and A -site displacements in Pbnm-type perovskite films. Synchrotron diffraction measurements of EuFeO 3 films under strain states ranging from 2% compressive to 0.9% tensile on cubic or rhombohedral substrates exhibit a combination of a ^-a ⁺ c ^- and a ⁺ a ^- c ^- rotational patterns. We compare the EuFeO₃ behavior with previously reported experimental and theoretical work on strained Pbnm-type films on nonorthorhombic substrates, as well as additional measurements from LaGaO₃ , LaFeO₃ ,more »« less
