KFM 17: Focus Session: Surfaces and Interfaces of (Incipient) Ferroelectrics (joint session O/KFM)

Wednesday, September 7, 2022, 15:00–18:30, H3

Ferroelectricity is a property of materials that allows spontaneous, switchable electric polarization. Recently, many surface-related applications have been proposed where ferroelectric or incipient-ferroelectric materials exhibit superior properties. These include catalysis, electron-hole separation in light harvesting, unique electronic properties such as a negative capacitance in heterostructures of ferroelectric materials, to name just a few. While (incipient) ferroelectrics clearly perform well in the aforementioned applications, there is very limited fundamental understanding of the processes involved on the surfaces of these materials.
