Interface structure and film polarization in epitaxial SrTiO[subscript 3]/Si(001)

Phenomenological models suggest that thin epitaxial SrTiO[subscript 3] films on silicon will exhibit ferroelectric behavior as a result of compressive strain. However, such models do not include atomic-scale interface effects, which can dramatically alter the predicted behavior. In this paper, we us...
