The microscopic origin of the electric Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (eDMI) is unveiled and discussed by analytical analysis and first-principles based calculations. As similar to the magnetic Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (mDMI), eDMI also originates from electron-mediated effect and more specifically from certain electron hoppings that are being activated due to certain local inversion symmetry breaking. However, the eDMI energy is found to be at least a third-order interaction in atomic displacements instead of bilinear in magnetic dipole moments for mDMI. Furthermore, the eDMI energy form is presented, and we find that novel electrical topological defects (namely, chiral electric bobbers) can arise from this eDMI. Thus unraveling the microscopic origin of eDMI has the potential to lead to, and explain, the discovery of novel polar topological phases.
