Abstract

Abstract : Here we prepare polycrystalline Mn1− x Ni x WO4 ceramics with x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 for investigating their magnetic, ferroelectric, and multiferroic properties. Abstract : Here we prepare polycrystalline Mn1− x Ni x WO4 ceramics with x = 0, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06 for investigating their magnetic, ferroelectric, and multiferroic properties. The Ni 2+ -substitution gradually expands the lattice and modifies the magnetic performance with increasing x, resulting in a strong modulation of electric properties of those samples. For Mn0.96 Ni0.04 WO4, ferroelectric polarization is observed in the whole temperature regime below T AF2, and is well modified by an external magnetic field, which is discussed under the framework of a spin-current model in this manuscript.
