Abstract
Piezomagnetic behaviors have been observed far above the Neel temperature in the perovskite-type layer structure compound (C18H37NH3)2MNCl4 undergoing structural phase transitions. Our observations were well explained by the magnetic and the structural orders coupled together via a magnetostructural coupling attributable to the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction.
Keywords: A. magnetically ordered materials; D. phase transitions
