New article published in the Journal of Applied Physics
Feb-20-2013 ABSTRACT: Frequency dependence of the dielectric response is studied for ferroelectric bilayer thin-film capacitors under a cyclic bias voltage. The approach used in this work enables probing strong dielectric nonlinearities at millisecond and microsecond time scales during polarization switching in thin films.

Paper Published in Review of Scientific Instrument
Dec-14-2011 ABSTRACT: We have developed a new approach to measure fast electrical signals during polarization switching in ferroelectric thin-film capacitors. This article describes a simple method for probing transient currents and voltages in a broad range of time scales from microseconds to hundreds of picoseconds.
