Abstract

Metal/ferroelectric/manganite tunnel structures and ferroelectric/manganite heterostructures connected in series via a manganite in the conductive phase were investigated. It was shown that the source of optical nonlinearity is a current arising in a tunnel structure due to the tunneling of electrons via a ferroelectric barrier. The resulting current flowing in the manganite of the heterostructure breaks the central symmetry of the manganite and/or causes ferroelectric polarization switching.
