Using a density-functional-theory-based computational approach we have examined the nature of electronic surface compensation of polarization in PbTiO3 films with bottom electrodes. For film thicknesses up to 12 unit cells, or approximately 5 nm, we find that films are unpolarized, with no significant electronic charg…

Magnetoelectric (ME) effect at Co2MnSi/BaTiO3 (001) interfaces is demonstrated by using the first-principle calculations. Within paraelectric state, the calculated phase diagram reveals that the modified MnMn/TiO2 (MM/TO) interface could be stabilized under Mn-rich and Co-rich condition. Compared with previous Fe/BaTi…
