This review aims to summarize more than 100 years of research on spinel compounds,
mainly focusing on the progress in understanding their magnetic, electronic, and polar …

Multiferroics, defined for those multifunctional materials in which two or more kinds of
fundamental ferroicities coexist, have become one of the hottest topics of condensed matter …

The mineral magnetite (Fe3O4) undergoes a complex structural distortion and becomes
electrically insulating at temperatures less than 125 kelvin. Verwey proposed in 1939 that …

In this contribution to the special issue on multiferroics we focus on multiferroicity driven by
different forms of charge ordering. We will present the generic mechanisms by which charge …

Suitable for researchers and graduate students in physics and material science," Physical
Acoustics in the Solid State" reviews the modern aspects in the field, including many …

The crystal structure of highly stoichiometric magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) below the Verwey
transition has been refined from high-resolution neutron and synchrotron x-ray powder …

This review puts in doubt the classical description of the Verwey (metal–insulator) transition
in magnetite on the basis of the wide set of experiments carried out over the last 60 years …

We apply the self-interaction corrected local spin density approximation to study the
electronic structure and magnetic properties of the spinel ferrites Mn Fe 2 O 4, Fe 3 O 4, Co …

Resonant (elastic) soft x-ray scattering (RSXS) offers a unique element, site and valence
specific probe to study spatial modulations of charge, spin and orbital degrees of freedom in …

We consider the superstructures, which can be formed in spinels containing on B sites the
transition-metal ions with partially filled t 2 g levels. We show that, when such systems are …
