Flexoelectricity in Photoconversion: Fundamentals, Materials, and Outlooks

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanical bending of a flexible cantilever induces a strain gradient in the photoactive material. The resulting flexoelectric field couples with photovoltaic and photoconductive effects, modulating charge generation, separation, and collection. A comparative analysis of oxide perovskites, halide perovskites, and two‐dimensional materials is presented,

Large‐Scale Growth of Self‐Poled Ferroelectric Rashba Semiconductor α‐GeTe(111) Thin Films: A Crucial Step Towards Future CMOS‐Compatible Ferroelectric Spintronic Devices

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric Rashba semiconductors promise ultralow‐power devices but lack industry‐quality films. This work demonstrates CMOS‐compatible fabrication of high‐quality α‐GeTe(111) films via magnetron sputtering, enabled by a 5 nm Sb2Te3 seed layer. Structural and ferroelectric analyses show robust, switchable polarization comparable to MBE films, paving
