Functional Ferroic Domain Walls for Nanoelectronics

Functional Ferroic Domain Walls for Nanoelectronics

A prominent challenge towards novel nanoelectronic technologies is to understand and control materials functionalities down to the smallest scale. Topological defects in ordered solid-state (multi-)ferroic materials, e.g., domain walls, are a promising gateway towards alternative sustainable technol...
