Coupled electricity and magnetism in solids: multiferroics and beyond
Abstract
The interplay of electricity and magnetism, one of the cornerstones of modern physics, takes a special form in solids in such phenomena as magnetoelectricity and the possibility of multiferroic behaviour. In this paper I give a short survey of the main notions of this field, paying special attention to microscopic aspects. Some related phenomena, such as electric activity of magnetic domain walls, etc., are also shortly discussed.
