      Sun, Binhan; Lu, Wenjun; Gault, Baptiste; Ding, Ran; Makineni, Surendra Kumar; Wan, Di; Wu, Chun-Hung; Chen, Hao; Ponge, Dirk; Raabe, Dierk (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      The antagonism between strength and resistance to hydrogen embrittlement in metallic materials is an intrinsic obstacle to the design of lightweight yet reliable structural components operated in hydrogen-containing ...
    • Conductivity control via minimally invasive anti-Frenkel defects in a functional oxide 

      Evans, Donald; Holstad, Theodor Secanell; Mosberg, Aleksander Buseth; Småbråten, Didrik Rene; Vullum, Per Erik; Dadlani, Anup; Shapovalov, Konstantin; Yan, Zewu; Bourret, Edith; Gao, David Zhe; Akola, Jaakko; Torgersen, Jan; Van Helvoort, Antonius; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Meier, Dennis (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Utilizing quantum effects in complex oxides, such as magnetism, multiferroicity and superconductivity, requires atomic-level control of the material’s structure and composition. In contrast, the continuous conductivity ...
    • Direct observation of ferroelectric field effect and vacancy-controlled screening at the BiFeO3/LaxSr1−xMnO3 interface 

      Kim, Young-Min; Morozovska, Anna; Eliseev, Eugene; Oxley, Mark P.; Mishra, Rohan; Selbach, Sverre Magnus; Grande, Tor; Pantelides, S. T.; Kalinin, Sergei V.; Borisevich, Albina Y. (Journal article, 2014)
      The development of interface-based magnetoelectric devices necessitates an understanding of polarization-mediated electronic phenomena and atomistic polarization screening mechanisms. In this work, the LSMO/BFO interface ...
    • Functional electronic inversion layers at ferroelectric domain walls 

      Mundy, Julia; Schaab, Jakob; Kumagai, Yu; Cano, Andres; Stengel, Massimiliano; Krug, Ingo P.; Gottlob, Daniel G.; Doganay, Hattice; Holtz, Megan, E.; Held, Rainer; Yan, Zewu; Bourret, Edith; Schneider, Claus M.; Schlom, Darrel G.; Muller, David A.; Ramesh, Ramamoorthy; Spaldin, Nicola A.; Meier, Dennis Gerhard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Ferroelectric domain walls hold great promise as functional two-dimensional materials because of their unusual electronic properties. Particularly intriguing are the so-called charged walls where a polarity mismatch causes ...
