Ab initio calculations are utilized as an input to develop a simple model of polarization in epitaxial short-period CaTiO3/SrTiO3/BaTiO3 superlattices grown on a SrTiO3 substrate. The model is then combined with a genetic algorithm technique to optimize the arrangement of individual CaTiO3, SrTiO3, and BaTiO3 layers in a superlattice, predicting structures with the highest possible polarization and a low in-plane lattice constant mismatch with the substrate. This modeling procedure can be applied to a wide range of layered perovskite-oxide nanostructures providing guidance for experimental development of nanoelectromechanical devices with substantially improved polar properties.
