Scale-free switching of polarization in the layered ferroelectric material CuInP_{2}S_{6}
Using first-principles calculations we model the out-of-plane switching of local dipoles in CuInP_{2}S_{6} (CIPS) that are largely induced by Cu off-centering. Previously, a coherent switching of polarization via a quadruple-well potential was proposed for these materials. In the supercells we consi...
