Exploring ferroelectricity in HfO2-based thin films by tackling application-relevant challenges

Matteo Cavalieri

Ferroelectric materials offer a broad range of application-relevant properties, including spontaneous polarization switchable by electric field. Archetypical representatives of this class of materials are perovskites, currently used in applications ranging ...

Transferable machine-learning models of complex materials: the case of GaAs

Giulio Imbalzano

Molecular simulations allow to investigate the behaviour of materials at the atomistic level, shedding light on phenomena that cannot be directly observed in experiments. Accurate results can be obtained with ab initio methods, while simulations of large-s ...

Repair or Degrade: the Thermodynamic Dilemma of Cellular Protein Quality-Control

Paolo De Los Rios, Bruno Claude Daniel Fauvet, Satyam Tiwari, Mathieu Rebeaud, Pierre Goloubinoff

Life is a non-equilibrium phenomenon. Owing to their high free energy content, the macromolecules of life tend to spontaneously react with ambient oxygen and water and turn into more stable inorganic molecules. A similar thermodynamic picture applies to th ...

Actuation of piezoelectric structures with ferroelectric thin films having multiple elements

Paul Muralt

A method for driving piezoelectric elements of a micro-system. The piezoelectric elements comprising a ferroelectric thin film, and being configured to be part of any one or a combination of items of a list comprising: a cantilever, a bridge, a diaphragm, ...

Interface-Dominated Time-Dependent Behavior of Poled Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride–Trifluoroethylene)/Barium Titanate Composites

Dragan Damjanovic, Yves Leterrier, Véronique Michaud, Sara Dalle Vacche

Composites in which particles of ferroelectric ceramic phase are randomly dispersed in a polymeric matrix are of interest because of flexibility, conformability, and ease of processing. However, their piezoelectric properties are rather low, unless very hi ...

Ultrasoft Liquid Metal Elastomer Foams with Positive and Negative Piezopermittivity for Tactile Sensing

Jianhang Yang, Yegor Piskarev, Yang Li, Michael Dickey

Soft, capacitive tactile (pressure) sensors are important for applications including human-machine interfaces, soft robots, and electronic skins. Such capacitors consist of two electrodes separated by a soft dielectric. Pressing the capacitor brings the el ...
