Seeking answers in ferroelectric patterning

Dec 19, 2020 (Nanowerk News) Why do some ferroelectric materials display bubble-shaped patterning, while others display complex, labyrinthine patterns? A FLEET study (Nature Communications, "Topology and control of self-assembled domain patterns in low-dimensional ferroelectrics") finds the answer to the changing patterns in ferroelectric films lies in non-equilibrium dynamics, with topological...
