Current Research
Electric-field control of magnetism in multiferroic materials
Multiferroics materials, which simultaneously exhibit ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism, have recently stimulated a sharply increasing number of research activities for their scientific interest and significant technological promise in the novel multifunctional devices. The coexistence of several order parameters and the strong coupling between ferroelecity and ferromagnetism will bring out some novel physical phenomena, such as electrical field-control-ferromagnetism and ferromagnetic field-control-ferroelectricity. The multiferroic materials have a widely applications in magnetic sensors. Our research focus on the exploration of new type multiferroic materials and their physical mechanisms using the advanced preparation and micro/nano processing technology and try to realize high sensitivity, high stability, high integrated, low cost and new type magnetic sensors, read-head and other magnetic devices.
