A polar oxide with a large magnetization synthesized at ambient pressure

J Am Chem Soc. 2005 Oct 12;127(40):13790-1. doi: 10.1021/ja054839w.

Abstract

The perovskite Bi2Mn4/3Ni2/3O6 is polar and combines relative permittivity behavior consistent with ferroelectricity with the magnetic response of a concentrated spin-glass. Bi2Mn4/3Ni2/3O6 is accessible by ambient pressure synthesis despite the instability of the end-members BiMnO3 and BiNiO3 under these conditions.
