Abstract

The field of multiferroics has greatly expanded in the last few years, particularly with the discovery of so many different types of multiferroic materials. This review organizes these materials according to the microscopic origin of their properties and explores how we can expect to find similar multiferroic behavior in systems that we have been studying all along.

  • Multiferroics fall into two classes: type I, in which noncentrosymmetric lattice distortion driving ferroelectric order occurs independent of magnetic order, and type II, in which ferroelectricity is induced by spinoidal magnetic order.

    “Multiferroics fall into two classes:73 type I, in which the noncentrosymmetric lattice distortion responsible for driving ferroelectric order occurs independent of magnetic order, and type II, where ferroelectricity is induced by spinoidal magnetic order.”

    From Ultrafast terahertz emission from emerging symmetry-broken materials (2023) · cites this paper as [73]

    The section “How to combine magnetism and ferroelectricity” distinguishes type I, whose ferroelectricity and magnetism arise largely independently, from type II, whose magnetism causes ferroelectricity. But “Type-II multiferroics: Magnetic multiferroics” says type II includes both spiral and collinear magnetic structures; the claim’s restriction to “spinoidal magnetic order” is not supported.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
