Topology and control of self-assembled domain patterns in low-dimensional ferroelectrics

Understanding the processes underlying the self-assembly of polar textures is pivotal for the development of future technologies. Here, the authors reveal the dynamics of nonequilibrium phase transitions in low-dimensional ferroelectrics and emphasize their topological nature.
