  • Doctoral Dissertation Oral Defense of K M Abu Hurayra Lizu
    This dissertation focuses on the nano-volumetric characterization of Pb-free ferroelectric and dielectric materials using advanced scanning probe techniques including Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM) and Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) in combination with the novel Tomographic Atomic Force Microscopy (T-AFM). These methods enable depth-dependent, nanoscale mapping of surface potential and ferroelectricity in complex material systems such […]
