Magnetic-Domain-Wall-Induced Electrical Polarization in Rare-Earth Iron Garnet Systems: A First-Principles Study
Abstract
In this work, first-principles methods are employed to understand the existence of magnetic-domain-wall-induced electric polarization observed in rare-earth iron garnets. In contrast with previous beliefs, it is found that the occurrence of such polarization neither requires the local magnetic moments of the rare-earth ions nor noncollinear magnetism. It can rather be understood as originating from a magnetoelectric effect arising from ferromagnetic interactions between octahedral and tetrahedral Fe ions at the domain walls, and the mechanism behind is found to be a symmetric exchange-striction mechanism.
