Abstract

Surface-effect induced strong magnetoelectric (ME) coupling was investigated in ultrathin Ni80Fe20/PZN-PT (lead zinc niobate-lead titanate) multiferroic heterostructures. Giant electric field (E-field) tuning of the magnetic anisotropy, ferromagnetic resonance field, coercive field and anisotropic magnetoresistance were demonstrated through strain mediated ME coupling in 10 nm thick Ni80Fe20/PZN-PT multiferroic heterostructures. E-field dynamic modulation of magnetoresistance was also displayed. These provide great opportunities for electrostatic tunable MR devices.
