Historical Foundation and Practical Guideline for Ferroelectric Switching Kinetic Studies
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The P and U pulses in the conventional PUND measurements are not identical because of the interplay between switching current and the measurement circuit components. This circuit effect can lead to a shift in polarization transients and misinterpreted physics in the switching kinetics.
