Low-temperature ferroelectric phase and magnetoelectric coupling in underdoped La2CuO4+x

We report the discovery of ferroelectricity below 4.5 K in highly underdoped La2CuO4+x accompanied by slow charge dynamics which develop below T ∼ 40 K. An anisotropic magnetoelectric response has also been observed, indicating considerable spin-charge coupling in this lightly doped parent high-temp...
