Electric field modulation of the tetragonal domain orientation revealed in the magnetic ground state of quantum paraelectric EuTiO3 by Kato, Y., Sunku, S. S., Ito, T., Spalek, L., Shimuta, M., Katsufuji, T., Saxena, S. S., Batista, Cristian D., Petrovic, A. P., Sengupta, Pinaki, Panagopoulos, Christos

“…Our experimentally determined magnetic phase diagram is accurately reproduced by a three-dimensional (3D) anisotropic Heisenberg spin model. Furthermore, we demonstrate that electric field cooling acts to suppress this orientational disorder by realigning the domains due to the strong coupling between electric fields and lattice dipoles characteristic of paraelectric materials.…”
