Polarizing an antiferromagnet by optical engineering of the crystal field

Kavli Affiliate: Ankit Disa | Summary:Strain engineering is widely used to manipulate the electronic and magnetic properties of complex materials. An attractive route to control magnetism with strain is provided by the piezomagnetic effect, whereby the staggered spin structure of an antiferromagnet is decompensated by breaking the crystal field symmetry, which induces a ferrimagnetic polarization. […]
