Excitations and relaxation dynamics in multiferroic GeV4S8 studied by THz and dielectric spectroscopy

S. Reschke, Zhe Wang, F. Mayr +4

We report on THz time-domain spectroscopy on multiferroic GeV4S8, which undergoes orbital ordering at a Jahn-Teller transition at 30.5 K and exhibits antiferromagnetic order below…

Structural, magnetic, electric, dielectric, and thermodynamic properties of multiferroic GeV4S8

S. Widmann, A. Günther, E. Ruff +4

The lacunar spinel GeV4S8 undergoes orbital and ferroelectric ordering at the Jahn-Teller transition around 30 K and exhibits antiferromagnetic order below about 14 K. In addition…

Conductivity contrast and tunneling charge transport in the vortex-like ferroelectric domain patterns of multiferroic hexagonal YMnO3

E. Ruff, S. Krohns, M. Lilienblum +4

We deduce the intrinsic conductivity properties of the ferroelectric domain walls around the topologically protected domain vortex cores in multiferroic YMnO3. This is achieved by…

On the multiferroic skyrmion-host GaV4S8

S. Widmann, E. Ruff, A. Günther +6

The lacunar spinel GaV4S8 exhibits orbital ordering at 44 K and shows a complex magnetic phase diagram below 12.7 K, which includes ferromagnetic and cycloidal spin order. At low b…

Dielectric signature of charge order in lanthanum nickelates

P. Sippel, S. Krohns, E. Thoms +7

Three charge-ordering lanthanum nickelates La2-xAxNiO4, substituted with specific amounts of A = Sr, Ca, and Ba to achieve commensurate charge order, are investigated using broadba…
