摘要:

自旋有序诱导的多铁性的铁电性通常通过考虑纯电子或离子位移的贡献来解释。然而,没有一个通用模型同时包括这两种效应。在这里,我们提出了一个现实的模型来描述离子位移的铁电性的基础上的自旋晶格耦合哈密顿量的一部分。结合这个模型与我们以前的纯电子模型的自旋顺序诱导极化,我们提出了一个统一的模型,包括这两种效果。通过将统一模型应用于电子和离子位移贡献变化很大的代表性多铁性材料,我们发现,该模型不仅可以再现第一性原理的结果,而且还提供了洞察铁电性的起源。

英文摘要:

The ferroelectricity of multiferroics induced by spin order is commonly explained by considering either purely electronic or ion-displacement contribution. However, there is no general model which includes both effects simultaneously. Here, we suggest a realistic model to describe the ion-displacement part of the ferroelectricity based on the spin-lattice coupling Hamiltonian. Combining this model with our previous pure electronic model for spin-order induced polarization, we propose a unified model that includes both effects. By applying the unified model to representative multiferroics where the electronic and ion-displacement contributions vary widely, we find that this model can not only reproduce the first-principles results, but also provide insight into the origin of ferroelectricity.
