Statistical Mechanics and Origin of the Magnetoelectric Effect in Cr2O3,

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to show that good quantitative agreement between theory and experiment on the magnetoelectric effect is obtainable using a two-sublattice model when the restrictions imposed by the molecular field theory are eased. Instead of using the molecular field theory to obtain the relation between the sublattice magnetization and the temperature, we derive this relationship from the experimental parallel magnetic susceptibility.
