Ferrotoroic phase transition in boracites

Pages 177-181 | Received 24 Mar 1998, Published online: 09 Mar 2011
 

Abstract

The phase transition mm21′←m′m2′observed in some boracites is regarded as a ferrotoroic phase transition, i.e., the toroidal moment is treated as the transition order parameter. This makes it possible to explain the observed narrow peak in the temperature dependence of the magnetoelectric tensor component α32.
