<b>Resumen de la charla:</b> The field of functional thin
films has transformed in the past decade. This is due to the
development of experimental techniques that allow synthesizing
materials with atomic control, which eventually leads to
atomically-defined interfaces, showing the way to much
improved devices and, in some cases, to totally new device
concepts. Here I will focus on the challenges related to the
synthesis and characterization of ferroic thin films,
particularly of oxide thin films, and the ordering phenomena
responsible for their large and tunable electrical, mechanical
or magnetic responses, which are directly linked to their
ferroelectric, ferroelastic or magnetic nature. I will discuss
the role of epitaxy on the atomic structure (strain
engineering) but also on the microstructure and properties. I
will illustrate this with examples of our own work on
ferroelectric/piezoelectric PZT and BaTiO3, multiferroic
TbMnO3 and BiFeO3 or our most recent work on the newly
discovered (by the Namlab team in Dresden) nano-ferroelectric
Hf0.5Zr0.5O2. Finally, I will offer my vision about future
directions in the field of (multi)ferroic oxides. <br>
