A phenomenological 2D model, simulating the martensitic transformation, is built upon existing experimental observations that the size of the formed plates -in direct transformation- decreases as the temperature is lowered; then they transform back in reversed order. As such, if a reverse transformation is incomplete (arrested), the subsequent direct one will show anomalously large number of big size plates-old plus newly formed- but consequentially a depletion of intermediate sizes, due to geometrical constraints, phenomenon that generates thermal memory.

We use time-resolved optical reflectivity to study the laser stimulated dynamics in the magnetic shape memory alloy Ni_2MnGa. We observe two coherent optical phonons, at 1.2 THz in the martensite phase and at 0.7 THz in the pre-martensite phase, whic
h we interpret as a zone-folded acoustic phonon and a heavily damped amplitudon respectively. In the martensite phase the martensitic phase transition can be induced by a fs laser pulse on a timescale of a few ps.
Jerky elasticity was observed by dynamical mechanical analyzer measurements in a single crystal of the shape memory alloy Cu74.08Al23.13Be2.79. Jerks appear as spikes in the dissipation of the elastic response function and relate to the formation of
avalanches during the transformation between the austenite and the martensite phase. The statistics of the avalanches follows the predictions of avalanche criticality P(E) proportional to E-epsilon where P(E) is the probability of finding an avalanche with the energy E. This result reproduces, within experimental uncertainties, previous findings by acoustic emission techniques.
We experimentally investigate transport properties of a hybrid structure, which consists of a thin single crystal SnSe flake on a top of 5~$mu$m spaced Au leads. The structure initially is in highly-conductive state, while it can be switched to low-c
onductive one at high currents due to the Joule heating of the sample, which should be identified as $alpha$-$Pnma$ -- $beta$-$Cmcm$ diffusionless martensitic phase transition in SnSe. For highly-conductive state, there is significant hysteresis in $dI/dV(V)$ curves at low biases, so the sample conductance depends on the sign of the applied bias change. This hysteretic behavior reflects slow relaxation due to additional polarization current in the ferroelectric SnSe phase, which we confirm by direct measurement of time-dependent relaxation curves. In contrast, we observe no noticeable relaxation or low-bias hysteresis for the quenched $beta$-$Cmcm$ low-conductive phase. Thus, ferroelectric behavior can be switched on or off in transport through hybrid SnSe structure by controllable $alpha$-$Pnma$ -- $beta$-$Cmcm$ phase transition. This result can also be important for nonvolatile memory development, e.g. phase change memory for neuromorphic computations or other applications in artificial intelligence and modern electronics.
LiOsO3 is one of the first materials identified in a recent literature as a polar metal, a class of materials that are simultaneously noncentrosymmetric and metallic. In this work, the linear and nonlinear optical susceptibility of LiOsO3 is studied
by means of ellipsometry and optical second harmonic generation (SHG). Strong optical birefringence is observed using spectroscopic ellipsometry. The nonlinear optical susceptibility extracted from SHG polarimetry reveals that the tensor components are of the same magnitude as in isostructural insulator LiNbO3, except the component along the polar axis d33, which is suppressed by an order of magnitude. Temperature-dependent SHG measurements in combination with Raman spectroscopy indicate a continuous order-disorder type polar phase transition at 140 K. Linear and nonlinear optical microscopy techniques reveal 109 deg/71 deg ferroelastic domain walls, like in other trigonal ferroelectrics. No 180 deg polar domain walls are observed to emerge across the phase transition.
By means of first-principles calculations, we investigate the thermal properties of silica as it evolves, under hydrostatic compression, from a stishovite phase into a CaCl$_2$-type structure. We compute the thermal conductivity tensor by solving the
linearized Boltzmann transport equation iteratively in a wide temperature range, using for this the pressure-dependent harmonic and anharmonic interatomic couplings obtained from first principles. Most remarkably, we find that, at low temperatures, SiO$_2$ displays a large peak in the in-plane thermal conductivity and a highly anisotropic behavior close to the structural transformation. We trace back the origin of these features by analyzing the phonon contributions to the conductivity. We discuss the implications of our results in the general context of continuous structural transformations in solids, as well as the potential geological interest of our results for silica.
