Abstract
AbstractThe possibility to control magnetic properties via electrical fields is investigated in a piezoelectric actuator/ferromagnetic semiconductor thin film hybrid structure. Using anisotropic magnetoresistance techniques, the magnetic anisotropy and the magnetization orientation within the plane of the ferromagnetic film are measured quantitatively. The experiments reveal that the application of an electrical field to the piezoelectric actuator allows to continuously and reversibly rotate the magnetization orientation in the ferromagnet by about 70°.
