We provide an overview of time-differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) measurements of ferroic and multiferroic materials. Here, we explore chalcogenide spinels, lead titanate, lead zirconate, and bismuth ferrite, describing the use of TDPAC experiments to probe the physics of localized defects and the various mechanisms that govern electronic and magnetic interactions, the coupling of the associated degrees of freedom, and the structural, charge, and orbital correlations for these materials.

Abstract Time differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) measurements were carried-out on PbZr0.8Ti0.2 O3 as a function of temperature. A broad distribution of electric field gradient (EFG) was observed in all cases with a second site for 181Hf-181 Ta probes in the R3c phase. The results were analyzed in terms of a model which simulates an attraction of the ions by the smaller Ti ions. The EFG was calculated within the point charge approximation, by averaging over a large number of configurations generated by random distribution of the Ti ions in an ensemble of lattice cells. It was verified that the model reproduces qualitatively the broadening of the TDPAC frequencies as well as explains the second component EFG observed experimentally.
