Our research goals
Our group focuses on focus on the synthesis and characterization of ferroelectric thin films and multiferroic heterostructures.
Research Areas:
Ferroelectrics, multiferroics, piezoelectrics, flexoelectrics, magnetoelectrics, photoferroics, bulk photovoltaic effect, dielectrics in extreme environments, metastable materials synthesis
Applications:
Photovoltaic cells, memory, magnetoelectric sensors, high voltage varistors, cellulose energy harvesters
Ferroelectric Materials:
Ferroelectric materials’ structural and electrical responses can be changed by the application of an external electric field.
Ferroelectrics are traditionally used in ultrasounds, sonar transducers, actuators, sensors, energy harvesters, adaptive optics, timing standards, radio frequency filters, accelerometers, capacitors, and memory.
