Giant magnetostriction in insulating magnetic materials is highly required for applications but is rarely observed. Here we show that giant magnetostriction (> 1500 ppm) can be achieved in an insulating transition metal oxide CaBaCo4O7…
Magneto-electric coupling in pyroelectric CaBaCo$_4$O$_7$ is investigated using ab-intio calculations and Landau theory. The former shows that exchange-striction is strong enough to produce a giant change in electric polarization upon…
In rhombohedral CaMn7O12, an improper ferroelectric polarization of magnitude 2870 {\mu}C m-2 is induced by an incommensurate helical magnetic structure that evolves below TN1 = 90 K. The electric polarization was found to be constrained to…
Ferroelectricity in the incommensurate helical magnetic phase (below TN, 43K) of alpha CaCr2O4 has been confirmed by pyroelectric measurements. Magnetoelectric and magnetodielectric coupling exist below TN and are proportional to the square…
The polar magnet CaBaCo$_{4}$O$_{7}$ is known to exhibit the largest magnetic-field-driven electric polarization change ($\Delta P$) associated with an antiferromagnetic (AFM)-ferrimagnetic (FIM) transition in a narrow temperature range…
Transport and magnetic studies of Ca3Ru2O7 for temperatures ranging from 0.4 K to 56 K and magnetic fields, B, up to 45 T leads to strikingly different behavior when the field is applied along the different crystal axes. A ferromagnetic…
We have investigated the magnetic and dielectric properties of Ca$_2$CoSi$_2$O$_7$ crystal. The dielectricity and magnetism of Ca$_2$CoSi$_2$O$_7$ are strongly coupled below a canted antiferromagnetic transition temperature ($T_{\rm N}$):…
Magnetic and dielectric properties of \aa kermanite Ca$_2$CoSi$_2$O$_7$ single crystals were investigated in pulsed high magnetic fields. In magnetic fields along the $c$ axis, this material shows a magnetization plateau in a wide range of…
We report ferroelectric ordering in Ni substituted CaBaCo4O7. Magnetization showed ferrimagnetic transition at 60 K and an additional transition is found ~ 82 K, further, enhanced antiferromagnetic interactions and decrease in saturation…
CaBaCo4O7 represents a new class of ferrimagnets whose structure is built up of CoO4 tetrahedra only, similarly to other members LnBaCo4O7 of the 114 series, forming an alternate stacking of kagome and triangular layers. Neutron powder…
Spin excitations were studied by absorption spectroscopy in CaBaCo4O7 which is a type-I multiferroic compound with the largest magnetic-order induced ferroelectric polarization ({\Delta}P=17mC/m2) reported, so far. We observed two optical…
The magnetic properties of the ferrimagnetic cobaltite CaBaCo$_4$O$_7$ are systematically investigated. We find that the susceptibility exhibits a downward deviation below $\sim$ 360 K, suggesting the occurrence of short range magnetic…
We investigate the spin-induced polarization in the multiferroic compound Ba2CuGe2O7 using variarional and finite temperature mean field approaches. The compound is described by a spin-3/2 Heisenberg model extended with easy plane…
A detailed investigation of Ba$_2$MnGe$_2$O$_7$ was performed in its low-temperature magnetoelectric state combining neutron diffraction with magnetization measurements on single crystals. In the paramagnetic state at 10 K, polarized…
In RBaCo4O7 (R = Ca, Y and Rare earth) cobaltite family, only CaBaCo4O7 shows 3D long range ferrimagnetic and spin driven electric polarization properties. In the present study, we have investigated the structural, magnetic and electric…
We study the magnetocapacitance (MC) effect and magnetoelectric (ME) coupling in spin-flop driven antiferromagnet Co4Ta2O9. The magnetocapacitance data at high magnetic fields are analyzed by phenomenological Ginzburg-landau theory of…
We performed susceptibility, magnetization, specific heat, and single crystal neutron diffraction measurements on single crystalline BaMn$_2$Si$_2$O$_7$. Based on the results, we revisited its spin structure with a more accurate solution…

A joint theoretical approach, combining macroscopic symmetry analysis with microscopic methods (density functional theory and model cluster Hamiltonian), is employed to shed light on magnetoelectricity in Ba2CoGe2O7. We show that the…
BaMF4 (M=Fe, Co, Ni and Mn) family are typical multiferroic materials, having antiferromagnetism at around liquid nitrogen temperature. In this work, polycrystalline BaFeF4 has been prepared by solid state reaction. The slight deficiency of…
