    Abstract: <p>In electron-doped ferroelectrics, the free electrons can become concentrated along the domain walls which act like a conducting surface. We consider the impact of free electrons occupying the t2g orbitals on the domain walls of an electron-doped perovskite ferroelectric. We build an analytical model based on Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire theory, and a trio of tight-binding Hamiltonians for… more
