摘要：

On the basis of first-principles calculations we show that the M-type hexaferrite BaFe12O19 exhibits frustrated antiferroelectricity associated with its trigonal bipyramidal Fe3+ sites. The ferroelectric (FE) state of BaFe12O19, reachable by applying an external electric field to the antiferroelectric (AFE) state, can be made stable at room temperature by appropriate element substitution or strain engineering. Thus M-type hexaferrite, as a new type of multiferoic with coexistence of antiferroelectricity and ferrimagnetism, provide a basis for studying the phenomenon of frustrated antiferroelectricity and realizing multiple state memory devices.
