Pattern Transfer and Electric-Field-Induced Magnetic Domain Formation in Multiferroic Heterostructures
The ability ability to tailor magnetic properties via coupling to ferroelectric domains is of great interest for the design of electric-field-tunable magnetic devices. Ferroelectric stripe domains are demonstrated to be fully transferable to magnetic thin films in multiferroic heterostructures and new magnetic domain patterns can be written by the application of an electric field.
