Unconventional Continuous Structural Disorder at the Order-Disorder Phase Transition in the Hexagonal Manganites
The improper ferroelectricity in YMnO_{3} and other related multiferroic hexagonal manganites is known to cause topologically protected ferroelectric domains that give rise to rich and diverse physical phenomena. The local structure and structural coherence across the ferroelectric transition, howev...
