Recently, CuO has been proposed as a potential multiferroic material with high transition temperature. Competing models based on spin current and ionic displacements are invoked to explain ferroelectricity in CuO. The theoretical model…
We used temperature-dependent neutron diffraction measurements on FeVO4 to understand the temperature driven anisotropy and observed that the maximum change for a and b lattice parameters in conjunction with a large contraction in angle…
We have carried out dc magnetization (M), heat-capacity (C) and dielectric studies down to 2K for the compound GdCrTiO5, crystallizing in orthorhombic Pbam structure, in which well-known multiferroics RMn2O5 (R= Rare-earths) form. The…
A study of the tetragonal to orthorhombic phase transition of GdFeAsO is presented. Planes of the reciprocal space were reconstructed form single-crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction data. By cooling below the structural transition…
Results of low temperature dielectric measurements on the mixed (Ca_(1-x)Pb_(x))TiO_(3) system are presented to show that a dielectric anomaly appears for x \geq 0.10. The observed dielectric peak is shown to be due to a thermodynamic phase…
The solid solution $0.5Ba(Ti_{0.8}Zr_{0.2})O_3$-$0.5(Ba_{0.7}Ca_{0.3})TiO_3$ (BCZT) has become a promising member of the lead-free piezoelectric materials because of its exceptionally high piezoelectric properties. In this study, we focus…
The ferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition of multiferroic CaMnTi$_2$O$_6$ has been investigated at high pressures and ambient temperature by second harmonic generation (SHG), Raman spectroscopy, and powder and single-crystal x-ray…
We have performed high-resolution powder x-ray diffraction measurements on a sample of $^{242}$PuCoGa$_{5}$, the heavy-fermion superconductor with the highest critical temperature $T_{c}$ = 18.7 K. The results show that the tetragonal…
Theoretical analysis based on the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire (LGD) theory is used to show that the product effect of flexoelectricity and rotostriction can lead to a spontaneous polarization in the vicinity of antiphase boundaries,…
