On the Symmetry Analysis of Surface Induced Effects

Abstract

The changes in the components of a wide variety of tensor physical properties, including piezomagnetic, piezomagnetic, magnetoelectric properties and toroidic properties, on traversing from the bulk to the surface of a crystalline material are explicitly tabulated.

Keywords:

• Symmetry theory
• physical properties
