Ultra-large non-volatile modulation of magnetic moments in PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3/MgO/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 heterostructure at room temperature via interfacial polarization mediation

Abstract Multiferroic hybrid structures PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 (PZT)/La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) and PZT/MgO/LSMO were epitaxially deposited on (001) Nb:SrTiO3 crystals. Crystallinity and ferroelectric domain structures were investigated for the PZT/LSMO heterostructure. Interestingly, relatively high non-volatil...
