We have carried out the ESR study of the multiferroic triangular antiferromagnet CuCrO2 in the presence of an electric field. The shift of ESR spectra by the electric field was observed; the observed value of the shift exceeds that one in materials with linear magnetoelectric coupling. It was shown that the low-frequency dynamics of magnetically ordered CuCrO2 is defined by joint oscillations of the spin plane and electric polarization. The results demonstrate qualitative and quantitative agreement with theoretical expectations of a phenomenological model (V.I. Marchenko (2014)).

Using electron-spin-resonance (ESR) technique we investigate the magnetic structure of CuCrO2, quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnet with weakly distorted triangular lattice. Resonance frequencies and the excitation conditions in CuCrO2 at low temper
atures are well described in the frame of cycloidal spin structure, defined by two susceptibilities parallel and perpendicular to the spin plane and by a biaxial crystal-field anisotropy. In agreement with the calculations, the character of the eigenmodes changes drastically at the spin-flop transition. The splitting of the observed modes can be well attributed to the resonances from different domains. The domain structure in CuCrO2 can be controlled by annealing of the sample in magnetic field.
An electron spin resonance (ESR) study of the heavy fermion compound YbRh2Si2 for fields up to ~ 8 T reveals a strongly anisotropic signal below the single ion Kondo temperature T_K ~ 25 K. A remarkable similarity between the T-dependence of the ESR
parameters and that of the specific heat and the 29Si nuclear magnetic resonance data gives evidence that the ESR response is given by heavy fermions which are formed below T_K and that ESR properties are determined by their field dependent mass and lifetime. The signal anisotropy, otherwise typical for Yb{3+} ions, suggests that, owing to a strong hybridization with conduction electrons at T < T_K, the magnetic anisotropy of the 4f states is absorbed in the ESR of heavy quasiparticles. Tuning the Kondo effect on the 4f states with magnetic fields ~ 2 - 8 T and temperature 2 - 25 K yields a gradual change of the ESR g-factor and linewidth which reflects the evolution of the Kondo state in this Kondo lattice system.
The orthorhombic Haldane spin chain compound Tb2BaNiO5 (Neel order, TN1= 63 K) has been shown to be an exotic multiferroic system below (TN2) 25 K due to various fascinating features, pointing to a strong potential for the advancement of concepts in
this field. In particular, the rare-earth ions play a direct decisive role unlike in many other well known multiferroic materials and there appears to be a critical canting angle, developing below TN2, subtended by Tb 4f and Ni 3d moments to trigger this cross coupling phenomenon. However, for a small replacement of Sr for Ba, viz. in Tb2Ba0.9Sr0.1NiO5, ferroelectricity was reported to get destroyed, but retaining magnetic features at (TN1) 55 K and (TN2) 14 K. In this article, we address the origin of suppression of multiferrocity in this Sr doped system through neutron diffraction studies and density functional theory calculations. We find that, unlike in Tb2BaNiO5, there is no pronounced change in the relative canting angle of the magnetic moments around TN2 and that the absolute value of this parameter down to 2 K fails to exceed the critical value noted for the parent, thereby explaining the origin of destruction of magnetoelectric coupling in the Sr doped material. This finding renders strong support to the proposal of possible existence of critical canting angle, at least in some cases, to induce multiferroicity, apart from serving as a route to engineer multiferroic materials for applications.
The magnetic phase diagram of CuCrO2 was studied with a novel method of simultaneous Cu NMR and electric polarization techniques with the primary goal of demonstrating that regardless of cooling history of the sample the magnetic phase with specific
helmet-shaped NMR spectra associated with interplanar disorder possesses electric polarization. Our result unequivocally confirms the assumption of Sakhratov et al. Phys. Rev. B bf{94}, 094410 (2016) that the high-field low-temperature phase is in fact a 3D-polar phase characterised by a 3D magnetic order with tensor order parameter. In comparison with the results obtained in pulsed fields, a modified phase diagram is introduced defining the upper boundary of the first-order transition from the 3D-spiral to the 3D-polar phase.
The Haldane spin-chain compound, Tb2BaNiO5, with two antiferromagnetic transitions, one at T1=63K, and the other at T2=25K, has been recently shown by us to be an exotic multiferroic below T2. Here, we report the results of our investigations of Sr d
oping at the Ba site by magnetization, heat-capacity, magnetoelectric (MDE), and pyrocurrent measurements. An intriguing finding, which we stress, is that the ferroelectricity is lost even for a doping level of 10 atomic percent, though magnetic ordering prevails. The doped specimens however retain significant magnetodielectric behaviour, but with reduced magnitudes and qualitative changes with respect to the behaviour of the parent compound. This implies that ferroelectric order is also crucial for the anomalously large MDE in the parent compound, in addition to the role of 4f single-ion anisotropy.
