Zusammenfassung:Distinct and novel features of nanometric electric topological defects, including dipole waves and dipole disclinations, are presently revealed in the PbTiO_{3} layers of PbTiO_{3}/SrTiO_{3} multilayer films by means of quantitative high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy. These original dipole configurations are confirmed and explained by atomistic simulations and have the potential to act as functional elements in future electronics.
