Domain formation and strain relaxation in epitaxial ferroelectric heterostructures

Journal Article Kwak, B S ; Erbil, A ; Budai, J D ; ... - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (United States)

The growth of PbTiO[sub 3] films by a metalorganic chemical-vapor-deposition technique has resulted in three-dimensionally epitaxial heterostructures on various single-crystal substrates. These heterostructures consist of PbTiO[sub 3] films on the (001) surface of the single crystals: potassium tantalate (KTaO[sub 3]), strontium titanate (SrTiO[sub 3]), and magnesium oxide (MgO). It was found that the presence of a structural (ferroelectric) phase transition in PbTiO[sub 3] leads to a strain-accommodating'' mechanism in which a domain pattern forms as the system cools through the Curie temperature and limits the extension of interfacial strain in the heterostructure---thus minimizing the total energy of the heterostructure.

Formation and Relaxation of Two-Dimensional Vortex Crystals in a Magnetized Pure-Electron Plasma

Journal Article Kiwamoto, Y ; Hashizume, N ; Soga, Y ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Systematic examinations are carried out experimentally about the contribution of background vorticity distributions (BGVD's) to the spontaneous formation and decay of ordered arrays (vortex crystals) composed of strong vortices (clumps) by using a pure-electron plasma. It is found that the BGVD level needs to be higher for an increasing number of clumps to form vortex crystals and that the number of the clumps constituting the crystal decreases in time as {proportional_to}{gamma}lnt in contrast to {proportional_to}t{sup -{xi}} with {xi}{approx_equal}1 as accepted well in turbulence models. The decay rate {gamma} increases with the BGVD level. The observed configurations of the clumps covermore »« less

Incommensurate two-dimensional checkerboard charge density wave in the low-dimensional superconductor ${Ta}_{4} {Pd}_{3} {Te}_{16}$

Journal Article Shi, Zhenzhong ; Kuhn, S. J. ; Flicker, F. ; ... - Physical Review Research

We report the observation of a two-dimensional (2D) checkerboard charge density wave (CDW) in the low-dimensional superconductor Ta₄Pd₃ Te₁₆. By determining its CDW properties across the temperature-pressure (T-P) phase diagram and comparing with prototypical CDW materials, we conclude that Ta₄Pd₃Te₁₆ features (a) an incommensurate CDW with a mixed character of dimensions [quasi-1D (Q1D) considering its needlelike shape along the b axis, Q2D as the CDW has checkerboard wave vectors, and 3D because of CDW projections along all three axes], and (b) one of the weakest CDWs compared to its superconductivity (SC), i.e., enhanced SC with respect to CDW, suggesting anmore »« less

Two- and three-dimensional incommensurate modulation in optimally-doped Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}}

Journal Article Castellan, J P ; Dabkowska, H A ; Gaulin, B D ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

X-ray scattering measurements on optimally doped single crystal samples of the high-temperature superconductor Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} reveal the presence of three distinct incommensurate charge modulations, each involving a roughly fivefold increase in the unit cell dimension along the b direction. The strongest scattering comes from the well known (H, K{+-}0.21, L) modulation and its harmonics. However, we also observe broad diffraction which peak up at the L values complementary to those which characterize the known modulated structure. These diffraction features correspond to correlation lengths of roughly a unit cell dimension, {xi}{sub c}{approx}20 A in the c direction, andmore »« less
