Magnetoelectric response of feld-driven composite multiferroics — Chenglong Jia1, •Alexander Sukhov1,2, and Jamal Berakdar1 — 1Institut für Physik, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, D-06120 Halle/Saale, Germany — 2Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik, Weinberg 2, D-06120 Halle/Saale, Germany
We study theoretically the electric or magnetic feld-induced dynamical response of a multiferroic material and trace the footprints of the magnetoelectric (ME) coupling in this response. Several scenarios of ME couplings are considered: (i) strain-mediated, (ii) charge-mediated, (iii) and exchange-bias mediated multiferroic oxide composite structures. By utilizing the kinetic Monte-Carlo simulations [1], it is demonstrated that the magnetization and the polarization of the heterostructures are controllable by external electric and magnetic felds, respectively.
