Novel multiferroicity in orthorhombic SmCrO3

This paper reports the ferroelectricity in antiferromagnetic SmCrO3 with a reasonably large value of spontaneous electric polarization (70 μC/cm2 mC cm−2 at 50 K) based on the measurement of pyroelectric current. The experimental results showed that the temperature of the onset of polar order was ev...
