Multifunctional properties in quantum systems require the interaction between different degrees of freedom. As such, spin-phonon coupling emerges as an ideal mechanism to tune multiferroicity, magnetism, and magnetoelectric response. In…
We report on the high-temperature evolution of far- and mid- infrared reflectivity and emissivity spectra of ambient orthorhombic ErMnO3 from 12 K to sample decomposition above 1800 K. At low temperatures the number of phonons agrees with…
Three types of BaTiO3 core - amorphous nano-shell composite ceramics were processed from the same core-shell powder by standard sintering, spark-plasma sintering and two-step sintering techniques and characterized by XRD, HRSEM and…
We present the results of pressure-dependent far-infrared reflectivity measurements on the multiferroic perovskite BiFeO3 at room temperature. The observed behavior of the infrared-active phonon modes as a funtion of pressure clearly…
Perovskites are mixed oxides with the general formula ABO3. Many different compositions have been found to be possible and their number is growing rapidly due to their characteristics that make them ideal for various applications, such as…
Under continuous light illumination, it is known that localized domains with segregated halide compositions form in semiconducting mixed-halide perovskites, thus severely limiting their optoelectronic applications due to the negative…
Perovskite manganites with small A-site ions, as the first and canonical branch of type-II multiferroics, are ideal systems to exhibit magnetism-induced ferroelectricity. Despite their established magnetoelectric phase diagrams under low…
Multiferroics with the coexistence of ferroelectric and ferromagnetic orders are ideal candidates for magnetoelectric applications. Unfortunately, only very few ferroelectric-ferromagnetic multiferroics (with low magnetic critical…
A method for evaluating the piezoelectric response of unpoled ferroelectric ceramics from elastic and dielectric measurements is proposed and tested on BaTiO$_3$. The method is based on the observation that the softening in a ferroelectric…
Multiferroic materials have attracted much interest due to the unusual coexistence of ferroelectric and (anti-)ferromagnetic ground states in a single compound. They offer an exciting platform for new physics and potentially novel devices.…
It is well known that if a crystal structure has no inversion symmetry, it may allow for Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya magnetic interactions, operating between different crystallographic unit cells, which in turn should lead to the formation of…
High performance lead-free multiferroic composites are desired to replace the lead-based ceramics in multifunctional devices applications. Laminated compounds were prepared from ferroelectric and ferromagnetic materials. In this work, we…
Using the high-resolution x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the temperature-dependent microwave resonator characterization, structural properties, phase assemblage and dielectric properties of…
The orthovanadate DyVO3 crystal, known to exhibit multiple structural, spin and orbital ordering transitions, is presently investigated on the basis of magnetization, heat capacity, resistivity, dielectric and polarization measurements. Our…
Multiferroic BiFeO$_3$ (BFO) possesses a rich phase diagram that allows strain tuning of its properties in thin-film form. In particular, at large compressive strain, a supertetragonal (T) phase with giant polarization is stabilized over…
Barium titanate (BaTiO3) ceramics with a different content of carbon were synthesized by spark-plasma sintering (SPS) at the temperature of 1100 C in vacuum under pressure. The concentration and distribution of carbon impurity inside the…
The paper suggests to treat the infrared reflectivity spectra of single crystal perovskite relaxors as fine-grained ferroelectric ceramics: locally frozen polarization makes the dielectric function strongly anisotropic in the phonon…
We have used first-principles methods to investigate the phase diagram of multiferroic bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3 or BFO), revealing the energetic and vibrational features that control the occurrence of various relevant structures. More…
Pure NaNbO$_{3}$ is an antiferroelectric material at room temperature that irreversibly transforms to a ferroelectric polar state when subjected to an external electrical field or lattice strain. Experimentally, it has been observed that…
The ability to finely tune optoelectronic properties in semiconductors is crucial for the development of advanced technologies, ranging from photodetectors to photovoltaics. In this work, we propose a novel strategy to achieve such…
