Abstract
Two-dimensional ferromagnets with high spin-polarization at ambient temperature are of considerable interest because they might be useful for making nanoscale spintronic devices. We report that even though bulk phases of MnO2 are generally antiferromagnetic with low ordering temperatures, the corresponding MnO2 and MnS2 monolayers are ferromagnetic, and MnS2 is a high temperature half metallic ferromagnet. Based on first-principles calculations, we find that the MnO2 monolayer is an intrinsic ferromagnetic semiconductor with a Curie temperature TC of ∼300 K, while the half-metallic MnS2 monolayer has a remarkably high TC of ∼1150 K. Both compounds have substantial magnetocrystalline anisotropy, out of plane in the case of MnO2 monolayers, and in plane along the b-axis of orthorhombic MnS2 monolayer. Interestingly, a metal-insulator phase transition occurs in the MnS2 monolayer when the applied biaxial strain is beyond -2%. Tuning near this metal-insulator transition offers additional possibilities for devices. The present work shows that MnX2 (X = O, S) monolayers have the properties required for ultrathin nano-spintronic devices.

Abstract
Within Landau theory, magnetism and polarity are homotopic, displaying a one-to-one correspondence between most physical characteristics. However, despite widely reported noncollinear magnetism, spontaneous noncollinear electric dipole order as a ground state is rare. Here, a dioxydihalides family is predicted to display noncollinear ferrielectricity, induced by competing ferroelectric and antiferroelectric soft modes. This intrinsic of dipoles generates unique physical properties, such as Z_{2}×Z_{2} topological domains, atomic-scale dipole vortices, and negative piezoelectricity.

Abstract
Inelastic neutron scattering recently confirmed the theoretical prediction of a ↑↑↓↓-magnetic state along the legs of quasi-one-dimensional iron-based ladders in the orbital-selective Mott phase (OSMP). We show here that electron doping of the OSMP induces a whole class of novel block states with a variety of periodicities beyond the previously reported π/2 pattern. We discuss the magnetic phase diagram of the OSMP regime that could be tested by neutrons once appropriate quasi-1D quantum materials with the appropriate dopings are identified.

Abstract
Multiferroics, where multiple ferroic orders coexist and are intimately coupled, promise novel applications in conceptually new devices on one hand, and on the other hand provide fascinating physics that is distinctly different from the physics of high-TC superconductors and colossal magnetoresistance manganites. In this mini-review, we highlight the recent progress of single-phase multiferroics in the exploration of new materials, efficient roadmaps for functionality enhancement, new phenomena beyond magnetoelectric coupling, and underlying novel physics. In the meantime, a slightly more detailed description is given of several multiferroics with ferrimagnetic orders and double-layered perovskite structure and also of recently emerging 2D multiferroics. Some emergent phenomena such as topological vortex domain structure, non-reciprocal response, and hybrid mechanisms for multiferroicity engineering and magnetoelectric coupling in various types of multiferroics will be briefly reviewed.

Abstract
The key physical property of multiferroic materials is the existence of coupling between magnetism and polarization, i.e. magnetoelectricity. The origin and manifestations of magnetoelectricity can be very different in the available plethora of multiferroic systems, with multiple possible mechanisms hidden behind the phenomena. In this review, we describe the fundamental physics that causes magnetoelectricity from a theoretical viewpoint. The present review will focus on mainstream physical mechanisms in both single-phase multiferroics and magnetoelectric heterostructures. The most recent tendencies addressing possible new magnetoelectric mechanisms will also be briefly outlined.

Abstract
We report pressure-dependent neutron diffraction and muon spin relaxation/rotation measurements combined with first-principles calculations to investigate the structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of BaFe2S3 under pressure. The experimental results reveal a gradual enhancement of the stripe-type ordering temperature with increasing pressure up to 2.6 GPa and no observable change in the size of the ordered moment. The ab initio calculations suggest that the magnetism is highly sensitive to the Fe-S bond lengths and angles, clarifying discrepancies with previously published results. In contrast to our experimental observations, the calculations predict a monotonic reduction of the ordered moment with pressure. We suggest that the robustness of the stripe-type antiferromagnetism is due to strong electron correlations not fully considered in the calculations.

Abstract
Iron-based superconductors display a variety of magnetic phases originating in the competition between electronic, orbital, and spin degrees of freedom. Previous theoretical investigations of the multi-orbital Hubbard model in one-dimension revealed the existence of an orbital-selective Mott phase (OSMP) with block spin order. Recent inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments on the BaFe2Se3 ladder compound confirmed the relevance of the block-OSMP. Moreover, the powder INS spectrum revealed an unexpected structure, containing both low-energy acoustic and high-energy optical modes. Here we present the theoretical prediction for the dynamical spin structure factor within a block-OSMP regime using the density-matrix renormalization-group method. In agreement with experiments, we find two dominant features: low-energy dispersive and high-energy dispersionless modes. We argue that the former represents the spin-wave-like dynamics of the block ferromagnetic islands, while the latter is attributed to a novel type of local on-site spin excitations controlled by the Hund coupling. Exploring the orbital-selective Mott phase (OSMP) addresses the central issue of electron correlations in the iron-based superconductors. Here the authors theoretically study the dynamical spin structure factor in the block-OSMP regime and unveil momentum dependent characteristics for different spin excitation modes.

Abstract
Low-dimensional materials have attracted extensive research interest in recent years owing to their interesting structural chemistry and physical properties, which will greatly deepen our knowledge of these materials and could lead to additional breakthroughs in the future. Herein we have synthesized and characterized Ba2 BiFeSe5 , which adopts a quasi-one-dimensional structure and possesses some fascinating physical properties. The sharp divergences between the field-cooled (FC) and the zero-field-cooled (ZFC) data and the rather small magnetic moment per Fe3+ (0.07 μB ) strongly suggest that the title compound is weakly ferromagnetic with a high magnetic transition temperature above room temperature, which is controlled by competing super-exchange interactions within and between [FeBiSe5 ]∞ anionic ladders. Moreover, with its narrow bandgap of 0.95 eV, Ba2 BiFeSe5 shows photoelectric properties with a photocurrent density of approximately 30 mA cm2 at 5 V. Our study demonstrates that Ba2 FeBiSe5 might be a new type of multifunctional material that deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Double-perovskite A2BB'O6 oxides with magnetic B and B' ions and E*-type antiferromagnetic order (E*-AFM, i.e. the ↑↑↓↓ structure) are believed to exhibit promising multiferroic properties, and Y2CoMnO6 (YCMO) is one candidate in this category. However, the microscopic origins for magnetically induced ferroelectricity in YCMO remain unclear. In this study, we perform detailed symmetry analysis on the exchange striction effect and lattice distortion, plus the first-principles calculations on YCMO. The E*-AFM state as the ground state with other competing states such as ferromagnetic and A-antiferromagnetic orders is confirmed. It is observed that the ferroelectricity is generated by the exchange striction associated with the E*-AFM order and chemically ordered Mn/Co occupation. Both the lattice symmetry consideration and first-principles calculations predict that the electric polarization aligns along the b-axis. The calculated polarization reaches up to 0.4682 μC cm(-2), mainly from the ionic displacement contribution. The present study presents a comprehensive understanding of the multiferroic mechanisms in YCMO and is of general significance for predicting emergent multiferroicity in other double-perovskite magnetic oxides.

Abstract
Iron pnictides and selenides display a variety of unusual magnetic phases originating from the interplay between electronic, orbital, and lattice degrees of freedom. Using powder inelastic neutron scattering on the two-leg ladder BaFe_{2}Se_{3}, we fully characterize the static and dynamic spin correlations associated with the Fe_{4} block state, an exotic magnetic ground state observed in this low-dimensional magnet and in Rb_{0.89}Fe_{1.58}Se_{2}. All the magnetic excitations of the Fe_{4} block state predicted by an effective Heisenberg model with localized spins are observed below 300 meV and quantitatively reproduced. However, the data only account for 16(3)μ_{B}^{2} per Fe^{2+}, approximatively 2/3 of the total spectral weight expected for localized S=2 moments. Our results highlight how orbital degrees of freedom in iron-based magnets can conspire to stabilize an exotic magnetic state.
