Finite size effects of hysteretic dynamics in multi-layer graphene on   ferroelectric
  The origin and influence of finite size effects on the nonlinear dynamics of space charge stored by multi layer graphene on ferroelectric and the resistivity of graphene channel were analyzed using self-consistent continuum media approach. Revealed size effects peculiarities are governed by the relations between the thicknesses of multi layer graphene, ferroelectric film and dielectric layer between them. Appearance of charge and electroresistance hysteresis loops and their versatility steam from the interplay of polarization reversal dynamics in alternating electric field and its incomplete screening, which features are mostly determined by the dielectric layer thickness. We further investigate the effects of spatially nonuniform ferroelectric domain structures on graphene layer conductivity and predict its dramatic increase under the transition from multi to single domain state in ferroelectric. The intriguing effects can open new possibilities for graphene based sensors and explore the physical mechanisms underlying the operation of graphene field effect transistor with ferroelectric gating.
