Polarization and magnetization dynamics of a field-driven multiferroic structure.
We consider a multiferroic chain with a linear magnetoelectric coupling induced by electrostatic screening at the ferroelectric/ferromagnet interface. We study theoretically the dynamic ferroelectric and magnetic response to external magnetic and electric fields by utilizing an approach based on coupled Landau-Khalatnikov and finite-temperature Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations. Additionally, w...
متن کاملCoupled ferroelectric polarization and magnetization in spinel FeCr2S4
One of the core issues for multiferroicity is the strongly coupled ferroelectric polarization and magnetization, while so far most multiferroics have antiferromagnetic order with nearly zero magnetization. Magnetic spinel compounds with ferrimagnetic order may be alternative candidates offering large magnetization when ferroelectricity can be activated simultaneously. In this work, we investiga...
متن کاملElectric-field-induced Spontaneous Magnetization and Phase Transitions in Zigzag Boron Nitride Nanotubes
We demonstrate an alternative scheme for realizing spin polarizations in semiconductor nanostructures by an all-electric way. The electronic and magnetic properties of the model system, zigzag pristine boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs), are investigated under a transverse electric field (E) through spin-polarized density functional theory calculations. As E increases, the band gap of BNNTs is red...
متن کاملHybrid improper ferroelectricity: a mechanism for controllable polarization-magnetization coupling.
First-principles calculations are presented for the layered perovskite Ca3Mn2O7. The results reveal a rich set of coupled structural, magnetic, and polar domains in which oxygen octahedron rotations induce ferroelectricity, magnetoelectricity, and weak ferromagnetism. The key point is that the rotation distortion is a combination of two nonpolar modes with different symmetries. We use the term ...
متن کاملElectrical polarization and orbital magnetization: the modern theories.
Macroscopic polarization P and magnetization M are the most fundamental concepts in any phenomenological description of condensed media. They are intensive vector quantities that intuitively carry the meaning of dipole per unit volume. But for many years both P and the orbital term in M evaded even a precise microscopic definition, and severely challenged quantum-mechanical calculations. If one...
