Near-room-temperature magnetoelectric coupling engineered through inversion-breaking tilts in a bulk perovskite polytype
Struan Simpson, Urmimala Dey, Martin R. Lees +3
Systematic strategies to design properties such as ferroelectricity or magnetoelectric coupling are well established in simple perovskite materials, but they remain scarce in more…

Goldstone-mediated polar instability in hexagonal barium titanate
S. Simpson, U. Dey, R. J. Sjökvist +5
We discover a rare structural manifestation of the Goldstone paradigm in a hexagonal polytype of the archetypal ferroelectric BaTiO3. First-principles calculations confirm the Gold…

Intrinsic electronic phase separation and competition between -type, -type and -type charge and orbital ordering modes in HgNaMnMnO
Ben R. M. Tragheim, Struan Simpson, En-Pei Liu +2
The novel series of hole-doped quadruple manganite perovskites HgNaMnMnO (HNMO) has been synthesized and its charge and orbital order behavior investigat…
