摘要
Complete magnetoelectric (ME) phase diagrams of orthorhombic RMnO3 with and without magnetic moments on the R ions have been established. Three kinds of multiferroic ground states, the ab-cycloidal, the bc-cycloidal, and the collinear E-type phases, have been identified by the distinct ME responses. The electric polarization of the E-type phase dominated by the symmetric spin exchange (S-i center dot S-j) is more than ten times as large as that of the bc-cycloidal phase dominated by the antisymmetric one (S(i)xS(j)) and the ME response is enhanced near the bicritical phase boundary between these multiferroic phases of different origins. These findings may provide generic features of the magnetically induced multiferroics.
