Surface-effect enhanced magneto-electric coupling in FePt/PMN-PT multiferroic heterostructures

A series of FePt films with different film thickness are deposited on Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) substrates. A standard symmetric ‘Butterfly’ shaped ΔM/M-Edc loops is obtained in 8 nm FePt/PMN-PT heterostrucuture via strain mediated magnetoelectric coupling. For the 3 nm FePt/PMN-PT heterostru...
