摘要: Combining ferroelectricity with other properties such as visible light absorption or long-range magnetic order requires the discovery of new families of ferroelectric materials. Here, through the analysis of a high-throughput database of phonon band structures, we identify a structural family of anti–Ruddlesden–Popper phases A 4 X 2 O (A= Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, X= Sb, P, As, Bi) showing ferroelectric and antiferroelectric behaviors. The discovered ferroelectrics belong to the new class of hyperferroelectrics that polarize even under open-circuit …
