Tunable ferroelectric polarization of the bulk and free standing ATiO3 (A = Ba and Pb) thin films via unit-cell thicknesses and strain engineering
Ab-Initio calculations are used to investigate the spontaneous polarization in the bulk and free standing ATiO3 (A = Ba and Pb) thin films by increasing the corresponding unit-cell thickness in [001]-direction and by adjusting the bi-axial strain (both compressive and tensile) in ab-plane [110]. Our...
