Magnetization Switching of CoPd Alloy Film on Piezoelectric Substrate via Inverse Piezoelectric Effect
نویسندگان
چکیده
The magnetization switching of Co0 25Pd0 75 alloy film on Pb(Zr0 52Ti0 48)O3 substrate was studied by measuring the polar Kerr rotation hysteresis loops and their electric field dependencies. It was found that the direction of spontaneous magnetization in CoPd alloy film was easily controllable via the inverse piezoelectric effect of the lead zirconate titanate layer, judging from the change of the Kerr rotation hysteresis loops with respect to an applied voltage. Since the magnetization direction maintains its initial state even when the applied voltage is turned off, this system is applicable to a future nonvolatile memory device.

Spin engineering of CoPd alloy films via the inverse piezoelectric effect
The spin engineering of CoxPd12x alloy films on Pb~Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 substrates was studied by measuring the polar Kerr rotation hysteresis loops and their electric field dependencies. The electric field dependence of polar Kerr rotation strongly depends on the composition of the CoPd alloys. This is especially so in the case of Co0.25Pd0.75 alloy film where the hysteresis loop of magnetic remane...

We report the tunable near-infrared luminescence of Ni(2+) doped SrTiO3 (STO:Ni) thin film grown on piezoelectric Pb(Mg(1/3)Nb(2/3))(0.7)Ti(0.3)O3 (PMN-PT) substrate via strain engineering differing from conventional chemical approach.

متن کاملExperimental investigation into the effect of substrate clamping on the piezoelectric behaviour of thick-film PZT elements
This paper details an experimental investigation of the clamping effect associated with thick-film piezoelectric elements printed on a substrate. The clamping effect reduces the measured piezoelectric coefficient, d33, of the film. This reduction is due to the influence of the d31 component in the film when a deformation of the structure occurs, by either the direct or indirect piezoelectric ef...
متن کاملReversible strain-induced magnetization switching in FeGa nanomagnets: Pathway to a rewritable, non-volatile, non-toggle, extremely low energy straintronic memory.
We report reversible strain-induced magnetization switching between two stable/metastable states in ~300 nm sized FeGa nanomagnets delineated on a piezoelectric PMN-PT substrate. Voltage of one polarity applied across the substrate generates compressive strain in a nanomagnet and switches its magnetization to one state, while voltage of the opposite polarity generates tensile strain and switche...

An experiment method for characterizing piezoelectric film, which is deposited on a substrate plate to form a thickness-shear wave High-overmode Bulk Acoustic Resonator (HBAR), will be presented in this paper. Based on the parallel and series resonant frequency spectra of the HBAR, the electromechanical coupling factor of the piezoelectric film operating in thickness-shear mode can be evaluated...
