Abstract

AbstractA novel quasi 1–2 type magnetoelectric (ME) nanocomposite films composted of one‐dimensional CoFe2O4 nanofibers and two‐dimensional PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 films on flexible mica substrate have been designed and fabricated. The ME coupling effects have been greatly enhanced due to the release of the clamping effect and the high strain transfer efficiency between the large aspect ratio of the nanofibers and ferroelectric thin films. The release of the clamping effect was confirmed by reducing the thickness of the mica substrate, in which the piezoelectric coefficient and ME coupling coefficient of the nanocomposite films have been greatly boosted by the decrease in the mica thickness. A large direct ME coupling coefficient of 630 mV/(cm Oe) and a converse ME coupling coefficient of 1.43 × 10−8 s/m have been achieved in the quasi 1–2 nanocomposite film with a substrate thickness of 25 µm. Furthermore, the stain‐mediated ME coupling was revealed by magnetic field/electric field‐induced local ferroelectric/magnetic domain switching dynamics.
