Magneto-orbital helices as a route to coupling magnetism and ferroelectricity in multiferroic CaMn₇O₁₂

Orbital physics drives a rich phenomenology in transition-metal oxides, providing the microscopic underpinning for effects such as Colossal Magnetoresistance. In particular, magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom are coupled through orbital ordering, and it has long been hoped that this coupling co...
