Abstract

Room-temperature ferromagnetic materials with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy are widely sought after for spintronics, magnetic data storage devices, and stochastic computing. To address this need, a new Fe-BaTiO ₃ vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) has been fabricated—combining both the strong room-temperature ferromagnetic properties of Fe nanopillars and the strong room-temperature ferroelectric properties of the BaTiO ₃ matrix. Furthermore, the Fe-BaTiO ₃ VAN allows for highly anisotropic magnetic properties with tunable magnetization and coercivity. Additionally, to demonstrate the multiferroic properties of the Fe-BaTiO ₃ system, the new metal-oxide hybrid material system has been incorporated in a multilayer stack. Overall, this new multiferroic VAN system possesses great potential in magnetic anisotropy and property tuning and demonstrates a new material family of oxide-metal hybrid systems for room-temperature multiferroic material designs.

Fine-grained multiferroic BaTiO{sub 3}/(Ni{sub 0.5}Zn{sub 0.5})Fe{sub 2}O{sub 4} composite ceramics synthesized by novel powder-in-sol precursor hybrid processing route

Journal Article Hongfang, Zhang ; Or, Siu Wing, E-mail: eeswor@polyu.edu.hk ; Department of Electrical Engineering, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Hom, Kowloon ; ... - Materials Research Bulletin

Dense, homogeneous, and fine-grained multiferroic BaTiO{sub 3}/(Ni{sub 0.5}Zn{sub 0.5})Fe{sub 2}O{sub 4} composite ceramics are synthesized by a novel powder-in-sol precursor hybrid processing route. This route includes the dispersion of nanosized BaTiO{sub 3} ferroelectric powders prepared via conventional sold-state ceramic process into (Ni{sub 0.5}Zn{sub 0.5})Fe{sub 2}O{sub 4} ferromagnetic sol-gel precursor prepared via sol-gel wet chemistry process. Uniformly distributed slurry is obtained after ball milling and used in the fabrication of the ceramics with low sintering temperatures. The ceramics show coexistence of ferromagnetic and ferroelectric phases with obvious ferromagnetic and ferroelectric hysteresis loops at room temperature, besides exhibiting excellent magnetic and dielectricmore »« less

Nitride-Oxide-Metal Heterostructure with Self-Assembled Core–Shell Nanopillar Arrays: Effect of Ordering on Magneto-Optical Properties

Journal Article Wang, Xuejing ; Jian, Jie ; Wang, Haohan ; ... - Small

Magneto-optical (MO) coupling incorporates photon-induced change of magnetic polarization that can be adopted in ultrafast switching, optical isolators, mode convertors, and optical data storage components for advanced optical integrated circuits. However, integrating plasmonic, magnetic, and dielectric properties in one single material system poses challenges since one natural material can hardly possess all these functionalities. Here, co-deposition of a three-phase heterostructure composed of a durable conductive nitride matrix with embedded core–shell vertically aligned nanopillars, is demonstrated. Additionally, the unique coupling between ferromagnetic NiO core and atomically sharp plasmonic Au shell enables strong MO activity out-of-plane at room temperature. Further, a templatemore »« less

Induced ferroelectric phases in SrTiO ₃ by a nanocomposite approach

Journal Article Enriquez, Erik ; Li, Qian ; Bowlan, Pamela ; ... - Nanoscale

Inducing new phases in thick films via vertical lattice strain is one of the critical advantages of vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs). In SrTiO ₃ (STO), the ground state is ferroelastic, and the ferroelectricity in STO is suppressed by the orthorhombic transition. In this study, we explore whether vertical lattice strain in three-dimensional VANs can be used to induce new ferroelectric phases in SrTiO ₃:MgO (STO:MgO) VAN thin films. The STO:MgO system incorporates ordered, vertically aligned MgO nanopillars into a STO film matrix. Strong lattice coupling between STO and MgO imposes a large lattice strain in the STO film. We havemore »« less

Multifunctional Metal–Oxide Nanocomposite Thin Film with Plasmonic Au Nanopillars Embedded in Magnetic La _0.67Sr _0.33MnO ₃ Matrix

Journal Article Huang, Jijie ; Wang, Han ; Qi, Zhimin ; ... - Nano Letters

Searching for multifunctional materials with tunable magnetic and optical properties has been a critical task toward the implementation of future integrated optical devices. Vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) thin films provide a unique platform for multifunctional material designs. In this work, a new metal–oxide VAN has been designed with plasmonic Au nanopillars embedded in a ferromagnetic La _0.67Sr _0.33MnO ₃ (LSMO) matrix. Such Au–LSMO nanocomposite presents intriguing plasmon resonance in the visible range and magnetic anisotropy property, which are functionalized by the Au and LSMO phase, respectively. Furthermore, the vertically aligned nanostructure of metal and dielectric oxide results in the hyperbolicmore »« less

Giant magnetoelectric coupling interaction in BaTiO{sub 3}/BiFeO{sub 3}/BaTiO{sub 3} trilayer multiferroic heterostructures

Journal Article Kotnala, R. K., E-mail: rkkotnala@nplindia.org, E-mail: rkkotnala@gmail.com ; Gupta, Rekha ; Chaudhary, Sujeet - Applied Physics Letters

Multiferroic trilayer thin films of BaTiO{sub 3}/BiFeO{sub 3}/BaTiO{sub 3} were prepared by RF-magnetron sputtering technique at different thicknesses of BiFeO{sub 3} layer. A pure phase polycrystalline growth of thin films was confirmed from X-ray diffraction results. The film showed maximum remnant electric polarization (2P{sub r}) of 13.5 μC/cm{sup 2} and saturation magnetization (M{sub s}) of 61 emu/cc at room temperature. Thermally activated charge transport dominated via oxygen vacancies as calculated by their activation energy, which was consistent with current–voltage characteristics. Magnetic field induced large change in resistance and capacitance of grain, and grain boundary was modeled by combined impedance and modulus spectroscopymore »« less
