Tuning the electric properties of crystalline solids is at the heart of material science and electronics. Generating the electric field-effect via an external voltage is a clean, continuous and systematic method. Here, utilizing the unique electric dipole locking in van der Waals (vdW) ferroelectric alpha-In2Se3, we report a new approach to establish the electric gating effect, where the electrostatic doping in the out-of-plane direction is induced and controlled by an in-plane voltage. With the vertical vdW heterostructure of ultrathin alpha-In2Se3 and MoS2, we validate an in-plane voltage gated coplanar field-effect transistor (CP-FET) with distinguished and retentive on/off ratio. Our results demonstrate unprecedented electric control of ferroelectricity, which paves the way for integrating two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric into novel nanoelectronic devices with broad applications.

Ferroelectric semiconductor field effect transistors (FeSmFETs), which employ ferroelectric semiconducting thin crystals of {alpha}-In2Se3 as the channel material as opposed to the gate dielectric in conventional ferroelectric FETs (FeFETs) were prep
ared and measured from room to the liquid-helium temperatures. These FeSmFETs were found to yield evidence for the reorientation of the electrical polarization and an electric field induced metallic state in {alpha}-In2Se3. Our findings suggest that FeSmFETs can serve as a platform for the fundamental study of ferroelectric metals as well as the exploration of the integration of data storage and logic operations in the same device.
Recent experiments on layered {alpha}-In2Se3 have confirmed its room-temperature ferroelectricity under ambient condition. This observation renders {alpha}-In2Se3 an excellent platform for developing two-dimensional (2D) layered-material based electr
onics with nonvolatile functionality. In this letter, we demonstrate non-volatile memory effect in a hybrid 2D ferroelectric field effect transistor (FeFET) made of ultrathin {alpha}-In2Se3 and graphene. The resistance of graphene channel in the FeFET is tunable and retentive due to the electrostatic doping, which stems from the electric polarization of the ferroelectric {alpha}-In2Se3. The electronic logic bit can be represented and stored with different orientations of electric dipoles in the top-gate ferroelectric. The 2D FeFET can be randomly re-written over more than $10^5$ cycles without losing the non-volatility. Our approach demonstrates a protype of re-writable non-volatile memory with ferroelectricity in van de Waals 2D materials.
Equilibrium spin-current is calculated in a quasi-two-dimensional electron gas with finite thickness under in-plane magnetic field and in the presence of Rashba- and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions. The transverse confinement is modeled by means
of a parabolic potential. An orbital effect of the in-plane magnetic field is shown to mix a transverse quantized spin-up state with nearest-neighboring spin-down states. The out-off-plane component of the equilibrium spin current appears to be not zero in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field, provided at least two transverse-quantized levels are filled. In the absence of the magnetic field the obtained results coincide with the well-known results, yielding cubic dependence of the equilibrium spin current on the spin-orbit coupling constants. The persistent spin-current vanishes in the absence of the magnetic field if Rashba- and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coefficients,{alpha} and {beta}, are equal each other. In-plane magnetic field destroys this symmetry, and accumulates a finite spin-current as {alpha} rightarrow {beta}. Magnetic field is shown to change strongly the equilibrium current of the in-plane spin components, and gives new contributions to the cubic-dependent on spin-orbit constants terms. These new terms depend linearly on the spin-orbit constants.
Nanoscaled room-temperature ferroelectricity is ideal for developing advanced non-volatile high-density memories. However, reaching the thin film limit in conventional ferroelectrics is a long-standing challenge due to the possible critical thickness
effect. Van der Waals materials, thanks to their stable layered structure, saturate interfacial chemistry and weak interlayer couplings, are promising for exploring ultra-thin two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectrics and device applications. Here, we demonstrate a switchable room-temperature ferroelectric diode built upon a 2D ferroelectric {alpha}-In2Se3 layer as thin as 5 nm in the form of graphene/{alpha}-In2Se3 heterojunction. The intrinsic out-of-plane ferroelectricity of the {alpha}-In2Se3 thin layers is evidenced by the observation of reversible spontaneous electric polarization with a relative low coercive electric field of ~$2 X 10^5 V/cm$ and a typical ferroelectric domain size of around tens ${mu}m^2$. Owing to the out-of-plane ferroelectricity of the {alpha}-In2Se3 layer, the Schottky barrier at the graphene/{alpha}-In2Se3 interface can be effectively tuned by switching the electric polarization with an applied voltage, leading to a pronounced switchable double diode effect with an on/off ratio of ~$10^4$. Our results offer a new way for developing novel nanoelectronic devices based on 2D ferroelectrics.
We explore the second order bilinear magnetoelectric resistance (BMER) effect in the d-electron-based two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the SrTiO3 (111) surface. We find an evidence of a spin-split band structure with the archetypal spin-momentu
m locking of the Rashba effect for the in-plane component. Under an out-of-plane magnetic field, we find a BMER signal that breaks the six-fold symmetry of the electronic dispersion, which is a fingerprint for the presence of a momentum dependent out-of-plane spin component. Relativistic electronic structure calculations reproduce this spin-texture and indicate that the out-of-plane component is a ubiquitous property of oxide 2DEGs arising from strong crystal field effects. We further show that the BMER response of the SrTiO3 (111) 2DEG is tunable and unexpectedly large.
