Abstract

Biffed into Shape BiFeO 3 is known to have a very large ferroelectric polarization. Although the bulk ground state is rhombohedral (with the electrical polarization along the [111] direction), in thin films and under epitaxial strain, the material can be tetragonally distorted (polarization along [001]). Zeches et al. (p. 977 ) show that under compressive strain, these films are monoclinic, a phase that is highly stable because it comprises the same symmetry as the monoclinic phase which has been reported at the so-called morphotropic phase boundaries in technologically important ferroelectrics. This work offers the possibility of obtaining large piezoelectric responses in lead-free systems.
