The orthorhombically distorted perovskite NaMnF$_{3}$ has been predicted to become ferroelectric if an $a=c$ distortion of the bulk $Pnma$ structure is imposed. In order to test this prediction, NaMnF$_{3}$ thin films were grown on…
Layered ruthenates are prototype materials with strong structure-property correlations. We report the structural and physical properties of double-layered perovskite Sr3(Ru1-xMnx)2O7 single crystals with 0<=x<=0.7. Single crystal x-ray…
The electronic valence state of Mn in Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3/La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 multiferroic heterostructures is probed by near edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy as a function of the ferroelectric polarization. We observe a temperature independent…
Polycrystalline bulk samples of PrFe1-xMnxO3 (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5) were synthesized by solid state reaction method to understand their structural, optical and dielectric properties
YCrO3 which has a monoclinic structure, shows weak ferromagnetism below 140 K (TN) and a ferroelectric transition at 473 K accompanied by hysteresis. We have determined the structure and energetics of YCrO3 with ferromagnetic and…
In this paper we report low-temperature magnetic properties of the rare-earth perovskite material YbAlO$_3$. Results of elastic and inelastic neutron scattering experiment, magnetization measurements along with the crystalline electrical…
SmFeO3 has attracted considerable attention very recently due to the reported multiferroic properties above room-temperature. We have performed powder and single crystal neutron diffraction as well as complementary polarization dependent…
We present results of local spin density approximation (LSDA) pseudopotential calculations for the perovskite structure oxide, bismuth manganite (BiMnO3). The origin of the differences between bismuth manganite and other perovskite…
We have investigated the crystal structure and the ferroelectric properties of BaTiO3 thin films with YBa2Cu3O7-d as the bottom and Au as the top electrode. Epitaxial heterostructures of YBa2Cu3O7-d and BaTiO3 were prepared by dc and rf…
We use resonant and non-resonant X-ray diffraction measurements in combination with first-principles electronic structure calculations and Monte Carlo simulations to study the relationship between crystal structure and multiferroic orders…
In ferroelectricity, atomic-scale dipole moments interact collectively to produce strong electro-mechanical coupling and switchable macroscopic polarization. Hence, the functionality of ferroelectrics emerges at a solid-solid phase…
The phonon spectrum of cubic cadmium metastannate and the crystal structures of its distorted phases were calculated from first principles within the density functional theory. It is shown that the phonon spectrum and the energy spectrum of…
Magnetic and dielectric properties on a polycrystalline La0.7Bi0.3CrO3 have been investigated. A canted antiferromagnetic (CAF) phase transition giving weak ferromagnetism at TN = 230K has been observed. M-H at 10K shows non-saturating…
The inside of the electrical double layer at perovskite oxide heterointerfaces is examined. Here, we report the local polarization and valence distribution in LaNiO$_3$/LaMnO$_3$ and LaMnO$_3$/LaNiO$_3$ bilayers on a SrTiO$_3$ (001)…
The octahedron tilt transitions of ABX_3 perovskite-structure materials lead to an anti-polar (or antiferroelectric) arrangement of dipoles, with the low temperature structure having six sublattices polarized along various crystallographic…
Structural and magnetic properties of the doped terbium manganites (Tb,A)MnO3 (A = Gd, Dy and Ho) have been investigated using first-principles calculations and further confirmed by subse- quent experimental studies. Both computational and…
The magnetic order, spin dynamics, and crystal structure of the multiferroic Sr0.56Ba0.44MnO3 have been investigated using neutron and x-ray scattering. Ferroelectricity develops at TC=305 K with a polarization of 4.2 microC/cm2 associated…
We have investigated the role of the 4$f$ moment on the magnetoelectric (ME) effect of orthorhombic $R$MnO$_{3}$ ($R$=rare earth ions). In order to clarify the role of the 4$f$ moment, we prepared three samples: (Eu,Y)MnO$_{3}$ without the…
YMnO3 exhibits a ferroelectric transition at high temperature (~ 900 K) and magnetic ordering at T_N ~ 70 K where the dielectric constant shows an anomaly indicative of the magneto-dielectric effect. Here we report powder neutron…
The floating-zone method with different growth ambiances has been used to selectively obtain hexagonal or orthorhombic DyMnO$_{3}$ single crystals. The crystals were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction of ground specimen and a…
