Depolarization fields in thin ferroelectric films
Abstract
A mechanism is proposed to explain depolarization phenomena that have been observed in thin ferroelectric films and related multilayer devices. It is shown that, for a short-circuited electrode-ferroelectric structure, incomplete compensation of the ferroelectric polarization charge results when the center of gravity of this charge and the free compensation charge are not coincident. Depolarization fields in the ferroelectric arising from such incomplete compensations are estimated. A simple switching calculation shows such fields to be of sufficient strength to account for the initial polarization decay rate observed in Pb0.92Bi0.07La0.01 (Fe0.405Nb0.325Zr0.27)O3 films. The results of measurements involving changes in film thickness, electron concentration in the electrodes, and contact materials will be discussed and shown to be consistent with the mechanism proposed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
