Emerging spin–phonon coupling through cross-talk of two magnetic sublattices

Typically, magnetic phenomena result from the spontaneous order of the sublattices. Here, the cross-talk of two magnetic ions gives rise to an intrinsic, yet non-spontaneous ordering and manifests as emergent strong spin–phonon coupling in SmFeO3.
