Electric‐Field‐Driven Reversal of Ferromagnetism in (110)‐Oriented, Single Phase, Multiferroic Co‐Substituted BiFeO3 Thin Films

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Electric‐field‐induced magnetization reversal is a long‐sought‐after achievement in materials engineering for use in next‐generation, ultra‐low power consumption memory devices. This work demonstrates fully electric‐field‐driven switching of the out‐of‐plane component of magnetization in (110)‐oriented Co‐substituted BiFeO3 thin films at room ...
