Room-temperature magnetoelectric coupling in single-phase BaTiO3-BiFeO3 system

In this paper, single-phase multiferroic ceramics of (1 x) BaTiO3 x BiFeO3 (BT x BFO) were synthesized by solid-solution method in the wide range of material composition (x1⁄4 0.025 – 1.0). The changes in crystal structure were confirmed via X-ray diffractions (XRD) and atomic pair distribution functions (PDFs). The room-temperature ME coupling was found to exhibit significant magnitude in the ...

Compositional dependence of hyperfi ne interactions and magnetoelectric coupling in (BiFeO3)x-(BaTiO3)1–x solid solutions

The promise of coupling between magnetization and electric polarization and the potential to manipulate one through the other has become in recent years a driving force for many experimental works on multiferroic materials. The ultimate goal of these studies would be a single-phase material exhibiting a strong coupling between inherent ferromagnetic and ferroelectric ordering at room temperatur...

Phase Coexistence of Gradient Gibbs States

We consider the (scalar) gradient fields η = (ηb)—with b denoting the nearest-neighbor edges in Z—that are distributed according to the Gibbs measure proportional to eν(dη). Here H = ∑ b V (ηb) is the Hamiltonian, V is a symmetric potential, β > 0 is the inverse temperature, and ν is the Lebesgue measure on the linear space defined by imposing the loop condition ηb1 + ηb2 = ηb3 + ηb4 for each p...
