Multiferroic Oxide 2DEgs for Reconfigurable nonvolatile memory Nanodevices (MODERN)

Objective

The main idea of MODERN project is the realization of novel Ferroelectric (FE) and multiferroic oxide two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) characterized by a metal-insulating transition as function of the FE-polarization direction. By locally switching-on and off the 2DEG using a scanning probe, devices with arbitrary nanoscale geometry will be demonstrated and sketched in a non-volatile manner, to realize prototype FE field effect transistors (FET), spin-FET and spin-charge conversion circuits for the generation and detection of spin-currents, all operating at ultra-low power energy density.

To achieve the objective, two heterostructures platforms will be studied and realized:
1. K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN)/KTaO3 2DEG, where KNN is a well-known lead-free FE layer and KTaO3 is an oxide characterized by a large SOC (up to 0.4 eV), that develops an interfacial 2DEG. Here KNN can both act as FE-layer with large polarization (up to 30 µC/cm2) and as interfacial donor of carriers by Nb-doping of the interface.

2. Delta-doped LAO/SrVO3 (down to 2 unit cells (UCs))/SrTiO3. Here, two UCs of VO2-terminated SrVO3 have been theoretically predicted to become a 2D multiferroic, with in plane FE order and an antiferromagnetic magnetic order

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Funding Scheme

Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.

Net EU contribution

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
