Hybrid Local-Order Mechanism for Inversion Symmetry Breaking
Emma H Wolpert, Alistair R Overy, Peter M M Thygesen +3
Using classical Monte Carlo simulations, we study a simple statistical mechanical model of relevance to the emergence of polarisation from local displacements on the square and cub…

Local structure study of the orbital order/disorder transition in LaMnO
Peter M. M. Thygesen, Callum A. Young, Edward O. R. Beake +8
We use a combination of neutron and X-ray total scattering measurements together with pair distribution function (PDF) analysis to characterise the variation in local structure acr…
