Phase separation enhanced magneto-electric coupling in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/BaTiO3 ultra-thin films

We study the origin of the magnetoelectric coupling in manganite films on ferroelectric substrates. We find large magnetoelectric coupling in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/BaTiO3 ultra-thin films in experiments based on the converse magnetoelectric effect. The magnetization changes by around 30-40% upon applying electric fields on the order of 1 kV/cm to the BaTiO3 substrate, corresponding to magnetoelectric ...

Magnetocapacitance effect in perovskite -superlattice based multiferroics

We report the structural and magnetoelectrical properties of La0.7Ca0.3MnO3/BaTiO3 perovskite superlattices grown on (001)-oriented SrTiO3 by the pulsed laser deposition technique. Magnetic hysteresis loops together with temperature dependent magnetic properties exhibit well-defined coercivity and magnetic transition temperature (TC) ̃140 K. DC electrical studies of films show that the magnetor...

Ultrathin BaTiO3 templates for multiferroicnanostructures

The structural, electronic and dielectric properties of high-quality ultrathin BaTiO3 films were investigated. The films, which were grown by ozone-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on Nb-doped SrTiO3(001) substrates and have thicknesses as low as 8 unit cells (u.c.) (3.2 nm), are unreconstructed and atomically smooth with large crystalline terraces. A strain-driven transition to three-dimensiona...

On the persistence of polar domains in ultrathin ferroelectric capacitors.

The instability of ferroelectric ordering in ultra-thin films is one of the most important fundamental issues pertaining realization of a number of electronic devices with enhanced functionality, such as ferroelectric and multiferroic tunnel junctions or ferroelectric field effect transistors. In this paper, we investigate the polarization state of archetypal ultrathin (several nanometres) ferr...

Ferroelectricity in Ultrathin Strained BaTiO3 Films: Probing the Size Effect by Ultraviolet Raman Spectroscopy

We demonstrate a dramatic effect of film thickness on the ferroelectric phase transition temperature, Tc, in strained BaTiO3 films grown on SrTiO3 substrates. Using variable temperature ultraviolet Raman spectroscopy enables measuring Tc in films as thin as 1.6 nm, and film thickness variation from 1.6 to 10 nm leads to Tc tuning from 70 to about 925K. Raman data are consistent with synchrotron...
