Magnetic Control of Ferroelectric Polarization in a Self-formed Single Magnetoelectric Domain of Multiferroic Ba3NbFe3Si2O14

Published 25 Mar 2014 in cond-mat.str-el | (1403.6232v1)

Abstract: We have discovered strong magnetoelectric (ME) effects in the single chiral-helical magnetic state of single-crystalline langasite Ba3NbFe3Si2O14 that is crystallographically chiral. The ferroelectric polarization, predominantly aligned along the a axis below the Neel temperature of ~27 K, changes in a highly non-linear fashion in the presence of in-plane magnetic fields (H) perpendicular to the a axis (H//b*). This ME effect as well as smaller ME effects in other directions exhibit no poling dependence, suggesting the presence of a self-formed single ME domain. In addition, these ME effects accompany no-measurable hysteresis, which is crucial for many technological applications.
