Cu3Nb2O8: a multiferroic with chiral coupling to the crystal structure.
By combining bulk properties, neutron diffraction, and nonresonant x-ray diffraction measurements, we demonstrate that the new multiferroic Cu(3)Nb(2)O(8) becomes polar simultaneously with the appearance of generalized helicoidal magnetic ordering. The electrical polarization is oriented perpendicul...
