| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have clarified that in-plane spin chirality on a perfect triangular lattice antiferromanget can induce ferroelectricity through our theory (study of magnetic symmetry) and experiment (pyroelectric measurement in pulsed magnetic fields and neutron diffraction measurement in quasi static magnetic fields. We have also shown that this phenomena strongly depend on its crystal structure. Moreover, we have clarified the possible space group of the crystal. We have succeeded to find another material showing the phenomena based on this expectation.
