 摘要:
In this talk, I will introduce hexagonal REMnO3 (RE= rare earths) with RE=Ho-Lu, Y, and Sc, which is an improper ferroelectric where the size mismatch between RE and Mn induces a trimerization-type structural phase transition, and this structural transition leads to three structural domains and two ferroelectric polarization domains, which can be viewed as topological vortices and antivortices[1]. We reported that the network of vortices can be neatly analyzed by graph theory and the evolution in the presence of electric field is related to domain preferential attachment [2, 3]. The vortices network turns out to be three-dimensional vortex loops, which result from the emergent continuous U(1) symmetry near the critical temperature [4]. This spontaneous trapping of topological defects in the process of undergoing a continuous phase transition is related with so-called Kibble-Zurek mechanism, which is proposed to test the birth of cosmos. Meanwhile, the manipulation of topological defects also will be discussed in this talk [5].
