Description
Xiaojiang Li and co-authors decode how networks of tiny twin domains in a ferroelectric material move under terahertz pulses, published in 2026. Such materials are of interest for fast tunable devices and electro-optics. Their domain wall networks can support collective motion at terahertz rates, but tracking both polarization and strain during a fast pulse is hard.
The team combined X-ray laser measures of lattice change with an optical method that tracks the linked electronic response. Phase-field modeling then separated the modes into wall breathing and polarization rotation. Domain walls moved at speeds near the speed of sound in the material, under modest fields. A new charging mode was found that can charge and discharge walls in a few trillionths of a second, tuning their conductivity.
