Ab Initio Study of Ferroelectric Critical Size of SnTe Low-Dimensional Nanostructures

Beyond a ferroelectric critical thickness of several nanometers existed in conventional ferroelectric perovskite oxides, ferroelectricity in ultimately thin dimensions was recently discovered in SnTe monolayers. This discovery suggests the possibility that SnTe can sustain ferroelectricity during fu...
