Magnetism driven ferroelectricity above liquid nitrogen temperature in Y2CoMnO6

TLDR
In this article, the multiferroic behavior in double perovskite Y2CoMnO6 with ferroelectric transition temperature Tc = 80 K was reported.
Abstract
We report multiferroic behaviour in double perovskite Y2CoMnO6 with ferroelectric transition temperature Tc = 80 K. Both X-ray diffraction and neutron scattering data confirm a centro-symmetric crystal structure of space group P21/n at room temperature. The saturation polarization and magnetization are estimated to be 65 μC/m2 and 6.2 μB/f.u. respectively. The magneto-electric coupling parameter, on the other hand, is small as a 5 T field suppresses the electric polarization by only ∼8%. The origin of ferroelectricity is associated with magnetic ordering of Co2+ and Mn4+ moments in ↑↑-↓↓ arrangement. A model based on exchange-striction is proposed to explain the observed high temperature ferroelectricity.

Conduction at domain walls in oxide multiferroics

TL;DR: The observation of room-temperature electronic conductivity at ferroelectric domain walls in the insulating multiferroic BiFeO(3) shows that the conductivity correlates with structurally driven changes in both the electrostatic potential and the local electronic structure, which shows a decrease in the bandgap at the domain wall.
