Femtoscale magnetically induced lattice distortions in multiferroic TbMnO₃.

Magneto-electric multiferroics exemplified by TbMnO(3) possess both magnetic and ferroelectric long-range order. The magnetic order is mostly understood, whereas the nature of the ferroelectricity has remained more elusive. Competing models proposed to explain the ferroelectricity are associated res...
