Long-Range Spin-Orbit-Coupled Magnetoelectricity in Type-II Multiferroic NiI${}_2$

Weiyi Pan, Zefeng Chen, Dezhao Wu +7

Type-II multiferroics, where spin order induces ferroelectricity, exhibit strong magnetoelectric coupling. However, for the typical 2D type-II multiferroic NiI${}_2$, the underlying…
