We investigate the polarization switching mechanism in ferroelectric-dielectric (FE-DE) stacks and its dependence on the dielectric thickness (TDE). We fabricate HZO-Al2O3 (FE-DE) stack and experimentally demonstrate a decrease in remnant polarization and an increase in coercive voltage of the FE-DE stack with an increase in TDE. Using phase-field simulations, we show that an increase in TDE results in a larger number of reverse domains in the FE layer to suppress the depolarization field, which leads to a decrease in remanent polarization and an increase in coercive voltage. Further, the applied voltage-driven polarization switching suggests domain-nucleation dominant characteristics for low TDE, and domain-wall motion-induced behavior for higher TDE. In addition, we show that the hysteretic charge-voltage characteristics of the FE layer in the FE-DE stack exhibit a negative slope region due to the multi-domain polarization switching in the FE layer. Based on our analysis, the trends in charge-voltage characteristics of the FE-DE stack with respect to different TDE (which are out of the scope of single-domain models) can be described well with multi-domain polarization switching mechanisms.

The ferroelectric polarization switching in ferroelectric hafnium zirconium oxide (Hf0.5Zr0.5O2, HZO) in the HZO/Al2O3 ferroelectric/dielectric stack is investigated systematically by capacitance-voltage and polarization-voltage measurements. The thi
ckness of dielectric layer is found to have a determinant impact on the ferroelectric polarization switching of ferroelectric HZO. A suppression of ferroelectricity is observed with thick dielectric layer. In the gate stacks with thin dielectric layers, a full polarization switching of the ferroelectric layer is found possible by the proposed leakage-current-assist mechanism through the ultrathin dielectric layer. Theoretical simulation results agree well with experimental data. This work clarifies some of the critical parts of the long-standing confusions and debating related to negative capacitance field-effect transistors (NC-FETs) concepts and experiments.
The particle-in-cell simulation is applied to study a nanometer-sized dielectric particle lofting from a dielectric substrate exposed to a low energy electron beam. The article discusses the electron accumulation between such a substrate and a partic
le lying on it, that can cause a particle lofting. The results are of interest for dust mitigation in the semiconductor industry, the lunar exploration and the explanation of the dust levitation.
Electromagnetic response of dielectric resonators with high refractive index is governed by optically induced electric and magnetic Mie resonances facilitating confinement of light with the amplitude enhancement. However, strong subwavelength trappin
g of light was associated traditionally only with plasmonic or epsilon-near-zero structures which however suffer from losses. Recently, an alternative localization mechanism was proposed to trap light in individual subwavelength optical resonators with a high quality factor in the regime of a supercavity mode. Here, we present the experimental observation of the supercavity modes in subwavelength ceramic resonators in the radiofrequency range. We demonstrate experimentally that the regime of supercavity mode can be achieved via precise tuning of the resonators dimensions resulting in a huge growth of the quality factor reaching the experimental values up to 1.25x10^4, being limited only by material losses in dielectrics. We reveal that the supercavity modes can be excited efficiently by both near- and far-fields by means of dipole sources and plane waves, respectively. In both the cases, the supercavity mode manifests itself clearly via characteristic peculiarities of the Fano resonance and radiation patterns. Our work paves the way for future compact practical devices in photonics and radiophysics.
The formation of breakdown pattern on an insulating surface under the influence of a transverse magnetic field is theoretically investigated. We have generalized the Dielectric Breakdown Model (DBM) for the case of external magnetic field. Concept of
the Magnetic Fractal Dimensionality (MFD) is introduced and its universality is demonstrated. It is shown that MFD saturates with magnetic fields. The magnetic field dependence of the streamer curvature is obtained. It is conjectured that nonlinear current interaction is responsible for the experimentally observed spider-legs like streamer patterns.
We show that global lower bounds to the mode volume of a dielectric resonator can be computed via Lagrangian duality. State-of-the-art designs rely on sharp tips, but such structures appear to be highly sub-optimal at nanometer-scale feature sizes, a
nd we demonstrate that computational inverse design offers orders-of-magnitude possible improvements. Our bound can be applied for geometries that are simultaneously resonant at multiple frequencies, for high-efficiency nonlinear-optics applications, and we identify the unavoidable penalties that must accompany such multiresonant structures.
