Orthoferrites are a class of magnetic materials with a magnetic ordering temperature above
600 K, predominant G-type antiferromagnetic ordering of the Fe-spin system and, depending …

Hexagonal YMnO 3 is a prototype antiferromagnet which exhibits multiferroic behavior with
the ferroelectric and magnetic transitions occurring at different temperatures. We observe an …

We use resonant and nonresonant x-ray diffraction measurements in combination with first-
principles electronic structure calculations and Monte Carlo simulations to study the …

Using resonant soft x-ray techniques we follow the magnetic behavior of a strained epitaxial
film of CoC r 2 O 4, a type-II multiferroic. The film is [110] oriented, such that both the …

X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD) have
been used to investigate the Fe magnetic response during the spin-reorientation transition …

Controlling material properties by modulating the crystalline structure has been attempted
using various techniques, eg, hydrostatic pressure, chemical pressure, and epitaxy. These …

Epitaxial strain in thin films can yield surprising magnetic and electronic properties not
accessible in bulk. One materials system destined to be explored in this direction are …

Multiferroic properties of orthorhombic HoMnO 3 (Pbnm space group) are significantly
modified by epitaxial compressive strain along the a-axis. We are able to focus on the effect …

Using resonant magnetic diffraction at the Ni L 2, 3 edge in a LaNiO 3 superlattice, we show
that dynamical effects beyond the standard kinematic approximation can drastically modify …

We present a generalized multiferroic phase diagram for orthorhombic R MnO 3 (R= Gd–Lu)
based on coherently grown thin films. The magnetic order was identified by neutron …
