Role of the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in multiferroic perovskites

TL;DR: In this article, the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) provides the microscopic mechanism for the coexistence and strong coupling between ferroelectricity and incommensurate magnetism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ferroelectricity in the magnetic E-phase of orthorhombic perovskites.

TL;DR: It is predicted that the polarization induced by the E-type magnetic order can potentially be enhanced by up to 2 orders of magnitude with respect to that in the spiral magnetic phases of TbMnO3 and similar multiferroic compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dual nature of improper ferroelectricity in a magnetoelectric multiferroic.

TL;DR: It is found that the two proposed mechanisms for FE in multiferroics, lattice and electronic based, are simultaneously active in this compound: a large portion of the ferroelectric polarization arises due to quantum-mechanical effects of electron orbital polarization, in addition to the conventional polar atomic displacements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Order parameter in superconductors with nondegenerate bands

TL;DR: In this article, general symmetry properties of the pairing function Delta(k) in noncentrosymmetric superconductors with spin-orbit coupling (NSC), including CePt3Si, UIr and Cd2Re2O7, were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metallic “Ferroelectricity” in the Pyrochlore C d 2 R e 2 O 7

TL;DR: Measurements of the elastic moduli of Cd2Re2O7 through the 200 K cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition are presented and it is revealed that the transition is consistent with the material being classified as a ferroelectric metal in the weaker sense described by Anderson and Blount (loss of a center of symmetry).
