The elimination of deviations of the mean-field Landau-type theory from the fancy size effect experiment in nanoscale ferroelectric BaTiO sub(3) capacitors

A time-dependent mean-field Landau-type model is established based on the dipole energies in epitaxial film in order to investigate thickness dependence of the remanent polarization. It is found that the deviations of the mean-field Landau-type theoretical prediction from the experimental data for size effect can be eliminated in SrRuO sub(3)/BaTiO sub(3)/SrRuO sub(3) capacitor.
