Electric-field-induced avalanches and glassiness of mobile ferroelastic twin domains in cryogenic SrTiO_{3}

Domain motion during ferroelectric switching has been recently suggested to follow scale-invariant avalanche dynamics. An interesting question concerns the dynamics of ferroelastic materials where the bulk material is nonpolar, while the polarity arises at domain walls only. We tackle this issue by...
