연제: Magnetoelectric Control in Monodomain Multiferroic Thin Film Heterostructures

Abstract

The coupling between ferroelectric and ferromagnetic order parameters in multiferroic thin films is a fascinating prospect for fundamental scientific research and potential multifunctional device applications. Among many multiferroic materials, BiFeO3 has potential for the development of novel spintronic devices as its unrivaled room-temperature multiferroic properties can be exploited in exchange-coupled magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs). Until now, the fundamental problem in implementing these devices has been that exchange interactions between BiFeO3 and a ferromagnetic overlayer have been observed only in the presence of domain walls. We now have new evidence of an intrinsic exchange interaction between monodomain BiFeO3 and a cobalt ferromagnetic overlayer that is not mediated by domain walls. We have developed a quantitative understanding of the magnetoelectric properties of monodomain BiFeO3 films using advanced synchrotron techniques (XMCD and XMLD). Such an approach would provide the basis for a deterministic and scalable device design that has been difficult in domain-wall-based approaches due to the inherent difficulty in precisely controlling domain wall formation and movement.
