ferro-rotational order describes a ferroically ordered state of an axial vector moment that is invariant under both spatial inversion and time reversal operations. This order was first theoretically proposed to complete the classification of ferroics with
vector order parameters, and now is the last remaining class to be revealed after the discoveries of ferro-toroidal, ferromagnetic, and ferroelectric orders. More recently, this order is suggested to exist in a good number of complex oxides and is responsible
for several novel quantum phenomena including the type-II multiferroic order. In this talk, I will present our studies of the ferro-rotational order in a type-II multiferroic material RbFe(MoO4)2 using high sensitivity rotational anisotropy second harmonic
generation (RA-SHG). I will show that the higher order electric quadrupole contribution to SHG has been exploited to investigate this inversion-symmetry-preserved ferro-rotational order. I will then reveal several physical properties of this ferro-rotational
order including its symmetry, domain distributions, temperature evolutions, and conjugate coupling field. I will further discuss the significance of understanding this ferro-rotational order in device applications and the new opportunities brought by the state-of-the-art
SHG spectroscopy and microscopy.</span><span style="color:rgb(12,100,192); font-family:"Times New Roman",Times,serif"> This presentation focuses on structure property/relationships in advanced materials, emphasizing multifunctional systems that exhibit multiple
functionalities. Such systems are then used as building blocks for the fabrication of various emerging technologies. In particular, nanostructured materials synthesized via the bottom–up approach present an opportunity for future generation low cost manufacturing
of devices [1]. We focus in particular on recent developments in solar technologies that aim to address the energy challenge, including third generation photovoltaics, solar hydrogen production, luminescent solar concentrators and other optoelectronic devices.
