Abstract :
Hexagonal RMnO3 is known as one of the candidates for multiferroic materials. We have focused on YbMnO3 which has ferroelectricity along c axis below 1000 K and antiferromagnetic ordering below 80 K. We have reported that magnetic field induced ferromagnetism in YbMnO3 epitaxial thin films[Takahashi, T., et al., 2006 ; Fujimura, N., et al., 2007]. In this study, we investigate the substitutional effect of the nonmagnetic element, Al for Mn ions with triangular spin ordering on the ferroelectric and magnetic properties of YbMnO3.
