Show affiliationsIt was observed that a ferroelectric domain boundary (DB) is always accompanied by an antiferromagnetic DB in hexagonal YMnO3, by means of interference effects of the second-harmonic signal. The clamping of these two order parameters at the ferroelectric DB is shown theoretically to originate from Dzyaloshinski–Moriya interaction. This interaction favouring a right angle between the neighbouring spins is found to be operative within the DB and to reverse the direction of the spins across the ferroelectric DB.
