报告内容摘要:
Electrical field control of magnetism has been attracting a great amount of recent interest due to its potential technological impacts. The coexistence of electrical polarization and magnetization in multiferroic materials provides great opportunities for realizing effective electric field control, or vice versa, through a strain mediated magnetoelectric interaction effect in layered magnetic/ferroelectric multiferroic heterostructures. Strong magnetoelectric coupling has been the enabling factor for different multiferroic devices, which however has been hard to achieve, particularly at RF/microwave frequencies.
In this presentation, I will cover the most recent progress on novel layered microwave multiferroic heterostructures and devices. We will demonstrate strong magnetoelectric coupling in novel microwave multiferroic heterostructures. These multiferroic heterostructures exhibit a giant electrostatically tunable magnetic field of 3500 Oe, and a high electrostatically tunable ferromagnetic resonance frequency range between 1.75~ 7.57 GHz, a tunable frequency of 5.82 GHz or fmax/fmin=4.3. At the same time, we will demonstrate E-field modulation of exchange bias and realization of electric field controlled near 180? dynamic magnetization switching at room temperature in antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic/ferroelectric multiferroic heterostructures. Through competition between the E-field induced uniaxial anisotropy and unidirectional anisotropy, large E-field induced tunable exchange field and near 180? deterministic magnetization switching will be demonstrated in exchange coupled multiferroic heterostructures. New multiferroic devices will also be covered in the talk, including multiferroic voltage tunable bandpass filters, voltage tunable inductors, tunable bandstop filters, and spintronics.
