Abstract
The presence of magnetic atoms at the A and B sites and the coupling between these two spin subsystems in perovskites gives rise to a variety of exciting effects. In particular this coupling attracts interest from the field of novel multiferroic and magnetoelectric oxides. Moreover, magnetic double perovskites presenting cationic order at the B sites incorporate an additional modulation that can favor symmetry breaking, multiferroic, magnetoelectric and polar phases. Here, we describe the magnetic structures obtained from neutron diffraction and analyze the symmetry properties of well ordered A2MnB'O6 double perovskites with A = Lu, Yb, Tm, Er, Ho, Y, Tb, La0.5Tb0.5, La and B' = Co or Ni. A rich variety of magnetic orders is formed that have been identified and described, and their symmetry properties are discussed in relation to the multiferroic and magnetoelectric properties of the different compounds.
期刊介绍:
Acta Crystallographica Section B: Structural Science, Crystal Engineering and Materials publishes scientific articles related to the structural science of compounds and materials in the widest sense. Knowledge of the arrangements of atoms, including their temporal variations and dependencies on temperature and pressure, is often the key to understanding physical and chemical phenomena and is crucial for the design of new materials and supramolecular devices. Acta Crystallographica B is the forum for the publication of such contributions. Scientific developments based on experimental studies as well as those based on theoretical approaches, including crystal-structure prediction, structure-property relations and the use of databases of crystal structures, are published.
