Tunable physical properties in Bi-based layered supercell multiferroics embedded with Au nanoparticles

“…42,43 Interesting optical dielectric function tuning has been demonstrated in multiple systems including BTO-Au, ZnO-Au, La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 -Au, etc. 44,45 In this work, we have combined the newly discovered single phase multiferroic BAMO LSC as the matrix and the plasmonic Au NPs to form a new nanocomposite system. By coupling the room-temperature multiferroic properties of the BAMO LSC and the LSPR of Au NPs, as shown in the schematic in Fig.…”

Multiferroic Self-Assembled BaTiO3–Fe Vertically Aligned Nanocomposites on Mica Substrates toward Flexible Electronics

“…Multiferroic thin films have attracted great interests owing to the potential for applications in low-power logic-memory devices, radio- and high-frequency devices, high-sensitivity magnetic field sensors, and photocatalysis. − Several multiferroic single-phase oxides have been well explored, including BiFeO 3 , YMnO 3 , and Fe 3 O 4 . − Driven by the need to improve the magnetoelectric coupling behavior, artificial composite multiferroic systems with different microstructures have been studied, including particulate composites, laminated multilayer thin films, and vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs). − A VAN is a composite containing two or more phases, where one phase grows as nanopillars within the other phase, which grows as the matrix. Such a structure presents the advantages of achieving out-of-plane anisotropy in the magnetic property, easy tuning multiferroic, and other properties by structural and strain tuning, as well as the potential toward integrating other functionalities such as optical and plasmonic properties. − Most of the multiferroic nanocomposites have been integrated on single-crystalline oxide substrates with limited success on other substrates such as Si(001). − …”
