The manipulation of a ferroelectric vortex under the boundary condition of inhomogeneous screening is simulated by phase-field calculations. It is revealed that the vortex chirality can be tuned by utilizing uniform electric fields under inhomogeneous screening boundary conditions in which the switching mechanism is distinct from that under boundary conditions of asymmetric screening previously reported. The influence of the screening inhomogeneity and the ambient temperature on the vortex switching is further studied. The results indicate that inhomogeneous screening conditions are of vital importance to the switching behaviors of vortex chirality in a ferroelectric nanodot under the influence of a uniform electric field. Furthermore, the critical electric field is inextricably linked to the screening inhomogeneity and the ambient temperature. |
