Author(s): D. Lee, A. Yoon, S. Y. Jang, J.-G. Yoon, J.-S. Chung, M. Kim, J. F. Scott, and T. W. Noh We report on nanoscale strain gradients in ferroelectric HoMnO 3 epitaxial thin films, resulting in a giant flexoelectric effect. Using grazing-incidence in-plane x-ray diffraction, we measured strain gradients in the films, which were 6 or 7 orders of magnitude larger than typical values reported fo... [Phys. Rev.
