An overview of the state of art in ferroelectric thin films is presented. First, we review
applications: microsystems' applications, applications in high frequency electronics, and …

In this review, the main concept of ferroelectricity of perovskite oxides and related materials
at nanometer scale and existing difficulties in the synthesis of those nanocrystals are …

With much excitement and great enthusiasm I introduce this thorough treatise on the major
aspects of domain and domain wall phenomena in ferroics, mostly ferroelectrics, a major …

This review paper summarizes recent advances in the quickly developing field of nanoscale
ferroelectrics, analyses its current status and considers potential future developments. The …

Nanoscale domain engineering in ferroelectric crystals is demonstrated down to a lateral
domain size of 25 nm in diameter using scanning force microscopy (SFM). The various …

Multiferroic perovskite oxides have multiple ferroic order parameters simultaneously in the
same phase in a certain temperature range, exhibiting an exciting way of coupling between …

In this contribution polarization sensitive modes of scanning force microscopy (SFM) and
near-field optical microscopy (NSOM) are illustrated focussing on the aspect of domain wall …

Triglycine sulphate (TGS) is a widely studied ferroelectric material due to its high pyroelectric
coefficients and pure 2nd order phase transition of the order-disorder type. In this work, we …

Ferroelectric materials gradually enter into the design of microelectronic devices. The ability
to increase the packing density of the ferroelectric structures and thus the capabilities of the …

Nanoscale investigations of ferroic systems are currently of clue interest in device fabrication
and analysis. We show that scanning force microscopy (SFM) is of valuable help in …
