Multiferroic Materials
Magnetoelectric multiferroic materials, exhibit unusual physical properties and promise new device applications such as magnetic sensors, generators, filters and so on. Multifunctional devices call for the coexistence of ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism and requirements of a strong coupling interaction between two ferroic orders. I am currently working on the developing high magnetoelectric coefficient material based on CoFe2O4/BaTiO3 composite. We are trying to manipulate the long-range order magnetic and ferroelectric coupling property and electronic conductivity by introducing dopant in both bulk material and then film. The quality and properties of the samples were monitored by XRD, SEM, etc.
