Reduction of the ordered magnetic moment in YMnO<sub>3</sub>with hydrostatic pressure
Reduction of the ordered magnetic moment in YMnO<sub>3</sub>with hydrostatic pressure
YMnO3 exhibits a ferroelectric transition at high temperature (≈900 K) and magnetic ordering at TN≈70 K, where the dielectric constant shows an anomaly indicative of the magneto-dielectric effect. Here we report powder neutron diffraction experiments in this compound that show that the magnetic moment at saturation is reduced by application …
