The diode and photovoltaic effects of BiFeO3 Bi0.9Sr0.1FeO3−δ polycrystalline thin films were investigated by poling the with increased magnitude alternating direction. It was found that both electromigration oxygen vacancies polarization flipping are able to induce switchable effects. For high vacancy concentration, reversibly can be observed due under an electric field much lower than its coercive field.

Defect-engineered perovskite oxides that exhibit ferroelectric and photovoltaic properties are promising multifunctional materials. Though introducing gap states by transition metal doping on the B-site can obtain low bandgap (i.e., 1.1-3.8 eV), electrically leaky generally lose piezoelectricity mainly due to oxygen vacancies. Therefore, development of highly piezoelectric semiconductor remains challenging. Here, inspired point-defect-mediated large in ferroelectrics especially at...
