Due to the large perpendicular magnetic anisotropy originating from spin-orbit coupling, magnetoelastic coupling is generally reported in easy-plane magnets with rectangular lattice where the easy magnetization is coupled with the lattice…
By combining neutron four-circle diffraction and polarized neutron diffraction techniques we have determined the complex spin structures of a multiferroic, YMn2O5, that exhibits two ferroelectric phases at low temperatures. The obtained…
We theoretically demonstrate that sufficiently strong magnetoelastic coupling can change the ground state of otherwise uniform spin systems to chiral spin configurations. More specifically, we show that, a periodic array of chiral spin…
Achieving strong magnetoelectric coupling (MEC) together with large ferroelectric polarization remains a central challenge in type-II multiferroics. In conventional spin-driven multiferroics, the induced polarization is usually mediated by…
We present results of an {\it ab initio} density functional theory study of three bismuth-based multiferroics, BiFeO$_{3}$, Bi$_{2}$FeCrO$_{6}$, and BiCrO$_{3}$. We disuss differences in the crystal and electronic structure of the three…
We review the phenomenology of coupled magnetic and electric order parameters for systems in which ferroelectric and incommensurate magnetic order occur simultaneously. We discuss the role that such materials might play in fabricating novel…
The magnetic, thermodynamic, and pyroelectric properties of LiFeP$_2$O$_7$ single crystals are investigated with emphasis on the magnetoelectric interaction of the electrical polarization with the magnetic order parameter. The magnetic…
We theoretically study origins of the ferroelectricity in the multiferroic phases of the rare-earth (R) Mn perovskites, RMnO3, by constructing a realistic spin model including the spin-phonon coupling, which reproduces the entire…
The correlation between static magnetoelectric coupling and magnetic structure was investigated in $TbMn_{0.98}Fe_{0.02}O_{3}$ with magnetic field up to 8 T and down to 2 K. Single-crystal neutron diffraction experiments reveal a…
It was recently observed that materials showing most striking multiferroic phenomena are frustrated spin-density-wave magnets. We present a simple phenomenological theory, which describes the orientation of the induced electric polarization…
Microscopic spin interactions on a deformed Kagom\'{e} lattice of volborthite are investigated through magnetoelastic couplings. A negative longitudinal magnetostriction $\Delta L<0$ in the $b$ axis is observed, which depends on the…
We carry out first-principles density-functional-theory calculations to elucidate the polarization switching mechanism in charge-ordering-induced ferroelectrics based on the prototypical case of the (SrVO$_3$)$_1$(LaVO$_3$)$_1$…
This work reports an experimental investigation of the magneto-elastic coupling and polarization character of magnetic phases of the orthorhombic Eu1-xYxMnO3 system at low temperatures. The temperature dependence of the polarization…
We clarify that the antiferromagnetic order in the distorted tetrahedral quasi-one dimensional spin system induces electric polarizations. In this system, the effects of the low dimensionality and the magnetic frustration are expected to…
We study the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in spin clusters of six spins with site spins $s=1$, $3/2$ and $2$ for different exchange anisotropies. We also study MCE in an assembly of spin clusters, on a chain, a 2-D square lattice and 3-D…
We propose a microscopic theory for magnetic switching of electric polarization (P) in the spin-spiral multiferroics by taking TbMnO3 and DyMnO3 as examples. We reproduce their phase diagrams under a magnetic field H_ex by Monte-Carlo…
Magneto-electric effect in a multiferroic heterostructure film, i.e. a coupled ferromagnetic-ferroelectric thin film, has been investigated through the use of the Metropolis algorithm in Monte Carlo simulations. A classical Heisenberg model…
The commensurate and incommensurate magnetic structures of the magnetoelectric system YMn$_{2}$O$_{5}$, as determined from neutron diffraction, were found to be spin-density waves lacking a global center of symmetry. We propose a model,…
In this paper a detailed numerical study (in frames of the Slonczewski formalism) of magnetization oscillations driven by a spin-polarized current through a thin elliptical nanoelement is presented. We show that a sophisticated…
Materials that combine magnetic and ferroelectric properties have generated increasing interest over the last few years, due to both their diverse properties and their potential utility in new types of magnetoelectric device applications.…
