Polarization rotation in a ferroelectric BaTiO3 film through low-energy He-implantation by Andreas Herklotz, Robert Roth, Zhi Xiang Chong, Liang Luo, Joong Mok Park, Matthew Brahlek, Jigang Wang, Kathrin Dörr, Thomas Zac Ward

“…The approach transforms a mixed ferroelectric domain state with significant in-plane polarization into a uniform out-of-plane tetragonal phase by selectively modifying the strain state in the film’s top region. This structural transition significantly improves domain homogeneity and reduces polarization imprint, leading to symmetric ferroelectric switching characteristics. …”
