Complex magnetic incommensurability and electronic charge transfer through the ferroelectric transition in multiferroic Co3TeO6

Abstract Polarized and unpolarized neutron diffractions have been carried out to investigate the nature of the magnetic structures and transitions in monoclinic Co3TeO6. As the temperature is lowered below 26 K long range order develops, which is fully incommensurate (ICM) in all three crystallograp...
