We review and critique the recent developments on multifunctional oxide materials, which
are gaining a good deal of interest. Recongnizing that this is a vast area, the focus of this …

Hexagonal rare-earth manganites and ferrites are well-known improper ferroelectrics with
low-temperature antiferromagnetism/weak ferromagnetism. In recent decades, new multi …

A hierarchical micro-/nanostructure, consisting of nano-sized Fe 2 O 3 needles vertically
grown on the {1 1 1} facets of micro-octahedral Fe 3 O 4 particles, has been successfully …

Nanosize multiferroic YFeO 3 powders have been synthesized via the low temperature solid-
state reaction. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning …

Using state-of-the-art aberration-corrected annular-bright-field and high-angle annular-dark-
field scanning transmission electron microscopy, we investigated domain wall structures in …

YFeO3, YFe0. 95Co0. 05O3, Y0. 95Gd0. 05FeO3 and Y1− xGdxFe0. 95Co0. 05O3 (x= 0.0,
0.05, 0.10, 0.15 and 0.20) nanopowders were successfully fabricated via a low-temperature …

Based on precursor powders with a size of 200–300 nm prepared by the low-temperature
solid reaction method, phase-pure YFeO3 ceramics are fabricated using spark plasma …

The antiferroelectric (AFE) phase, in which nonpolar and polar states are switchable by an
electric field, is a recent discovery in promising multiferroics of hexagonal rare-earth …

Phase-pure hexagonal and orthorhombic YFeO3 nanopowders are synthesized by low-
temperature solid-state reaction along with Zr doping. The obtained powders are …

This collection presents 505 papers on ferroelectricity in single crystals, ceramics and
polymers in which pointed or elliptical hysteresis loops would testify to their ferroelectric …
