B 97, 144102 (2018)<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n There has recently been renewed interest in improper ferroelectricity due to the discovery of a \u201chybrid\u201d mechanism by which two nonpolar lattice modes couple to a third polar mode. Here, the authors demonstrate that the polar ground state of perovskite HgMn3Mn4O12 emerges due to electronic instabilities that drive charge and orbital ordering on the A- and B-sites. These order parameters couple to polar displacements (P) in a manner conceptually similar to hybrid improper ferroelectricity. The results open up a possible route for electronic control of orbital ordering – an appealing prospect given the technologically important properties dependent on such states<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wei-Tin Chen, Chin-Wei Wang, Hung-Cheng Wu, Fang-Cheng Chou, Hung-Duen Yang, Arkadiy Simonov, and Mark S.
