Néel-like domain walls in ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 single crystals

Flexible rotation of spontaneous polarization at ferroelectric domain walls is predicted in theory but lacks evidence from experiment. Here, Wei et al. image a Néel-like domain wall in Ti-rich ferroelectric Pb(Zr1−xTix)O3crystals, providing insight in exploring chiral domain walls in ferroelectrics....
