Asymmetry of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in BaTiO3

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Phase transitions are typically assumed to behave identically in forward and reverse. This work shows that in the ferroelectric material barium titanate this is not true: heating drives an abrupt, first‐order jump, while cooling gives a smooth, continuous change.

LEAD: Literature Enhanced Ab Initio Discovery of Nitride Dusting Layers for Enhanced Tunnel Magnetoresistance and Lower Resistance Magnetic Tunnel Junctions

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) using MgO tunnel barriers face challenges of high resistance‐area product and low tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR). To discover alternative materials, Literature Enhanced Ab initio Discovery (LEAD) is developed. The LEAD‐predicted materials are theoretically evaluated, showing that MTJs with dusting of ScN or TiN on ...

Current Switching of Topological Spin Chirality in the van der Waals Antiferromagnet Co1/3TaS2

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Spin chirality plays a central role in quantum magnetism, governing spin winding and generating real‐space Berry phases. We propose the intriguing concept of current‐switching spin chirality and demonstrate it via unconventional intrinsic self‐spin‐orbit‐torque in pristine Co1/3TaS2, purely by electrical current and with high energy efficiency.
