The characteristics of X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Current (I)-Voltage (V), and the Polarization-Electric field (P-E) on the BiFeO3 (BFO), BaTiO3 (BTO), and our proposed Multi-Layer (ML) BiFeO3/BaTiO3 (BFO/BTO) samples are studied systemically. The influence of these films with and without different external Magnetic (Mex.) inputs is also investigated. Our proposed multi-ferroic ML BFO/BTO sample has a lower tunneling current (Jg) (~5 × 103 times) and a stronger magneto-electric effect (an ~25 times higher value of the change of saturated polarization Ps with the Mex. inputs than the pure multi-ferroic BFO sample. The material properties for ML BFO/BTO samples can be optimized with the combination of the advantages of BFO and BTO thin films. The stronger magneto-electric effect in our proposed ML samples can have many applications such as magnetic sensors, magnetic electric devices, and logic Magneto-Electric Spin–Orbit (MESO) devices.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
