Abstract

Controlling magnetic and electronic properties with electric fields, rather than magnetic fields, is of keen interest for a new generation of energy-efficient, high-speed, nonvolatile logic devices, among other applications. The authors exploit ferroelastic domain switching via the magnetoelectric effect to achieve control of electronic transport and magnetic properties in manganite-niobate-titanate heterostructures. The domain-switching-induced ferroelastic strain is also strongly correlated with magnetic field, which is mediated by an electronic phase separation. These results are important for a mechanistic understanding of the couplings in multiferroic systems.
