Ferroelectrics feature spontaneous electric dipolar order reconfigurable via electric fields. Recent theoretical studies of the collective excitations of this electric dipolar order give rise to the hope that "ferron" quasiparticles may…
We identify the bosonic excitations in ferroelectrics that carry electric dipoles from the phenomenological Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire theory. The "ferron" quasi-particles emerge from the concerted action of anharmonicity and broken…
Ferrons are quantum excitations of electric polarization in ferroelectrics and electric analogues of magnons but have lacked direct experimental verification at room temperature. We harness the coupling of soft phonons and ferroelectric…
Excitation of ordered quantum phases gives rise to collective modes and quasiparticles, as exemplified by spin waves and magnons emerging from magnetic order. Extending this paradigm to ferroelectric materials suggests the existence of…
The duality between the electric and magnetic dipoles inspires recent comparisons between ferronics and magnonics. Here we predict surface polarization waves or ``ferrons" in ferroelectric insulators, taking the long-range dipolar…
The duality between electric and magnetic dipoles in electromagnetism only partly applies to condensed matter. In particular, the elementary excitations of the magnetic and ferroelectric orders, namely magnons and ferrons, respectively,…
Multiferroics are materials with coexisting electric and magnetic orders that are of central importance for fundamental research and technological applications. Unfortunately, intrinsic multiferroics that operate at room temperature remain…
Ferrons are a type of quasiparticle corresponding to elementary excitations of the ferroelectric order. Analogously to how magnons modulate and transport magnetization, ferrons modulate and transport electric polarization. Here, we…
Magnons enable transferring a magnetic moment or spin over macroscopic distance. In quantum Hall ferromagnet, it has been predicted in the early 90s that spin and charges are entangled, meaning that any change of the spin texture modifies…
Multiferroics, showing simultaneous ordering of electrical and magnetic degrees of freedom, are remarkable materials as seen from both the academic and technological points of view. A prominent mechanism of multiferroicity is the…
The phenomenological theory of ferroelectricity in spiral magnets presented in [M. Mostovoy, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 067601 (2006)] is generalized to describe consistently states with both uniform and modulated-in-space ferroelectric…
Recently, oxide multiferroics have attracted much attention due to their large magnetoelectric effect which allows the tuning of magnetic properties with electric field and vice versa and open new venues for future spintronic applications…
Magnon excitations in antiferromagnetic materials and their physical implications enable novel device concepts not available in ferromagnets, emerging as a new area of active research. A unique characteristic of antiferromagnetic magnons is…
Magnetoelectric properties of a coupled spin-electron model on a doubly decorated square lattice in an external electric field applied along the crystallographic axis [11] are rigorously examined with the help of generalized…
Magnons are the elementary excitations of the magnetic order that carry spin, momentum, and energy. Here we compare the magnon with the ferron, i.e. the elementary excitation of the electric dipolar order that transports polarization and…
Magnetodielectric materials are characterized by a strong coupling of magnetic and dielectric properties and in rare cases simultaneously exhibit both, magnetic and polar order. Among other multiferroics, TbMnO3 and GdMnO3 reveal a strong…
We uncover a new pathway towards multiferroicity, showing how magnetism can drive ferroelectricity without relying on inversion symmetry breaking of the magnetic ordering. Our free-energy analysis demonstrates that any commensurate…
The collective amplitude mode of the order parameter in displacive ferroelectrics, termed the ferron, represents the amplitude fluctuations of long-range ordered polarization. At temperatures well below phase transition temperature $T_c$,…
A broad continuum-like spin excitation (1--10 meV) with a peak structure around 2.4 meV has been observed in the ferroelectric $ab$ spiral spin phase of Gd$_{0.7}$Tb$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ by using terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopy. Based on…
Magnetic dipolar mode or magnetostatic (MS) oscillations in ferrite samples have the wavelength much smaller than the electromagnetic wavelength at the same frequency and, at the same time, much larger than the exchange interaction spin…
