Abstract
The ferroelectric materials are mainly focused on pure inorganic oxides; however, the organic molecule based materials have recently attracted great attention because of their multifunctional properties. The mixing of oxalate and phenanthroline ligands with metal ions (Fe or Mn) at room temperature followed by hydrothermal treatment results in the formation of one–dimensional single chain molecular magnets which exhibit room temperature dielectric and ferroelectric behavior. The compounds are chiral in nature, and exhibit a ferroelectric behavior, attributed to the polar point group C2, in which they crystallized. The compounds are also associated with a dielectric loss and thus a relaxation process. The observed electric dipole moment, essential for a ferroelectricity, has been understood quantitatively in terms of lattice distortions at two different lattice sites within the crystal structure. The studied single chain molecular magnetic materials with room temperature ferroelectric and dielectric properties could be of great technological importance in non–volatile memory elements, and high-performance insulators.
