Electric Polarization and Magnetic Properties of (NH)KI (x = 0.05-0.17)
Yi Yang Xu, Lei Meng, Miao Miao Zhao +2
While all of the polymorphs of pure NHI and KI are non-polar, we identify that (NH)KI is ferroelectric and (NH)KI and (NH)$_{0.8…
Magnetic interactions based on proton orbital motion in CHNHPbI and CHNHPbBr
Lei Meng, Miao Miao Zhao, Yi Yang Xu +5
The microscopic origin of the remarkable optoelectronic properties of one of the most studied contemporary materials remains unclear. Here, we identify the existence of magnetic in…
Magnetic Properties of NHHPO and KHPO: Emergence of Multiferroic Salts
Lei Meng, Chen He, Wei Ji +1
We observe sharp step-down discontinuities in the magnetic susceptibility of NHHPO and NHHPO- (60% deuterated) along the and -axes occurrin…
Magnetoelectric Coupling Based on Protons in Ammonium Sulfate
Lei Meng, Chen He, Fei Yen
Most ferroelectric crystals have their own set of unique characteristics and ammonium sulfate (NH)SO is no exception. We report on two previously unidentified features…
Magnetic Ordering of Ammonium Cations in NHI, NHBr and NHCl
Fei Yen, Lei Meng, Tian Gao +1
The different types of magnetism arise mainly from how electrons move and interact with each other. In this work, we show how protons (H) also exhibit magnetic behavior. We mea…
