Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have searched for materials that show cross-correlated phenomena, especially in which uniaxial stress is worked as an external stimulus. As a result, we have found that MTeMoO6(M=Co,Mn)(S.G.P212121) is not only chiral and ferroelastic in which switching of ferroelastic domain by an uniaxial stress is accompanied by switching of crystal chirality, but also shows magnetoelectric effect at low temperatures.
