By Jian-Rui Soh, Maximilian E. Merkel, Leonid V. Pourovskii, Ivica Zivkovic, Sonia Francoual, Daigorou Hirai, Andrea Urru, Davor Tolj, Dario Fiore Mosca, Oleg Yazyev, Nicola Spaldin, Claude Ederer| Nature Verified AbstractClarifying the underlying mechanisms that govern ordering transitions in condensed matter systems is crucial for comprehending emergent properties and phenomena. While transitions are often classified as electronically driven or lattice-driven, we present a departure from this conventional picture in the case of the double perovskite Ba2MgReO6.
By Sayantika Bhowal, Materials Theory, Nicola Spaldin| Physical Review B@ We investigate the role of electric toroidal dipoles in the prototypical ferroaxial materials and , which undergo ferroaxial structural phase transitions of order-disorder and displacive type, respectively. Using first-principles electronic structure theory, we compute the evolution across the ferroaxial transitions of the local electric toroidal dipole moments, defined in terms of both the vortices formed by local dipoles as well as the cross product of orbital and spin angular momenta.
