Room-temperature type-II multiferroic phase induced by pressure in cupric oxide

According to previous theoretical work, the binary oxide CuO can become a room temperature multiferroic via tuning of the superexchange interactions by application of pressure. Thus far, however, there has been no experimental evidence for the predicted room-temperature multiferroicity. Here, we sho...
