Locally Odd-Parity Hybridization Induced by Spiral Magnetic Textures
Abstrak
We study unconventional multipole moments arising from noncollinear magnetic structures within an augmented framework encompassing electric, magnetic, magnetic toroidal, and electric toroidal multipoles. Employing a tight-binding model for an <i>s</i>-<i>p</i> hybridized orbital system, we analyze two spiral magnetic textures and classify the resulting multipoles according to magnetic point group symmetry. Different spiral wave types, such as cycloidal and proper-screw forms, activate distinct multipole components, with odd-parity multipoles emerging from local <i>s</i>-<i>p</i> parity mixing induced by magnetically driven inversion-symmetry breaking. Calculated multipole structure factors reveal finite-<i>q</i> peaks originating from higher-order magnetic-dipole-scattering processes and their characteristic couplings between Fourier components of the magnetic dipole texture. Our results demonstrate that magnetic ordering can generate parity-mixed states without intrinsic structural inversion asymmetry, offering new pathways to realize cross-correlation phenomena in functional magnetic materials.
