Design of magnetoelectric coupling in a self-assembled epitaxial nanocomposite via chemical interaction

摘要

A chemically induced magnetoelectric coupling effect in ferroelectric/ antiferromagnetic self-assembled vertical nanocomposites is designed. A concrete connection between chemical diffusion and the induced magnetic moment is revealed. Importantly, this study shows the strong magnetoelectric coupling effect, which is key to extend the design of functionality in vertical nanocomposites.
