Abstract
- The magnetic properties of BiFeO3(BFO) - CoFe2O4(CFO) heterostructure thin films, grown on (100), (110) and (111) SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by employing pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method, have been studied. The XRD patterns of BFO-CFO multilayer thin films compared with the pure CFO and BFO thin films grown using under identical conditions evidenced that all peaks present correspond to CFO and BFO structure in two separate phases. Micro-Raman spectra analysis also reveals the presence of BFO and CFO in two separate phases in the heterostructures thin films. The anomalous enhancement in magnetization has been observed for BFO-CFO multilayer thin films, relative to pure BFO thin films in all three different orientations. The saturation magnetization for (100), (111) and (110) oriented BFO-CFO thin films are 44, 62 and 80 emu/cc suggesting that (110) is most preferable direction to achieve the magneto electric (ME) coupling effect.
