Abstract
We report on room temperature magnetoelectric coupling in Zn1−xCoxO/BaTiO3 (x = 0.02, 0.05, and 0.10) bilayer thinfilm multiferroic system (BLS) grown on SrTiO3 (100) substrate. All the BLSs exhibit room temperature ferroelectric response. The BLS with x = 0.02 is paramagnetic, while the BLS with x = 0.05 and 0.10 is weakly ferromagnetic. Increase in Co concentration of the BLS results in reduction of permittivity and electric polarization along with increase of coercive voltage, coercive field, and magnetic moment. The d33 value change from 23 pm/V to 30 pm/V with increase in external magnetic field from 1500 G to 2500 G for BLS with x = 0.05. This shows that Zn1−xCoxO/BaTiO3 is magnetoelectrically coupled at room temperature.
