Multiferroism induced by spontaneous structural ordering in antiferromagnetic iron perovskites Martínez de Irujo Labalde, Xabier Goto, Masato Urones-Garrote, Esteban Amador, Ulises Ritter, Clemens Amano Patino, Midori Koedtruad, Anucha Tan, Zhenhong Shimakawa, Yuichi García Martín, Susana Room-temperature multiferroism in polycrystalline antiferromagnetic Fe perovskites is reported for the first time. In the perovskite-type oxides RE1.2Ba1.2Ca0.6Fe3O8 (RE = Gd, Tb), the interplay of layered ordering of Gd(Tb), Ba, and Ca atoms with the ordering of FeO4-tetrahedra (T) and FeO6-octahedra (O) results in a polar crystal structure. The layered structure consists of the stacking sequence of RE/Ca-RE/Ca-Ba-RE/Ca layers in combination with the TOOT sequence in a unit cell. A polar moment of 33.0 μC/cm2 for the Gd-oxide (23.2 μC/cm2 for the Tb one) is determined from the displacements of the cations, mainly Fe, and oxygen atoms along the b-axis. These oxides present antiferromagnetic ordering doubling the c-axis, and the magnetic structure in the Tb-compound remains up to 690 K, which is one of the highest transition temperatures reported in Fe perovskites. 2024-01-10T10:45:14Z 2024-01-10T10:45:14Z 2019 journal article Martínez De Irujo-Labalde, Xabier, et al. «Multiferroism Induced by Spontaneous Structural Ordering in Antiferromagnetic Iron Perovskites».
