The slight incommensurate modulation of the structure of Bi(2)Mn(4/3)Ni(2/3)O(6) is sufficient to suppress the electrical polarization which arises in commensurate treatments of the structure, due to antiferroelectric coupling of local polar units of over 900 A(3). The incommensurate structure is produced by the compe…
