Abstract

High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide Nanodots composed of multiferroic cobalt-substituted BiFeO 3, a ferroelectric ferromagnet at room temperature, are fabricated by pulsed laser deposition using anodized porous alumina as masks. The obtained nanodots are approximately 60 nm in diameter, more than 10 nm in thickness, and approximately 70 Gbit/in. 2 in density. Piezoresponse and magnetic force microscopies show both ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism with a single-domain nature. It is also found that the dot with 190 nm diameter had multidomain vortex ferroelectric and magnetic structures indicating the strong magnetoelectric coupling. The single-domain cobalt-substituted BiFeO 3 nanodots are suitable for verifying magnetization reversal by the electric field, which is the first step in the development of low-power-consumption nonvolatile magnetic memory devices.
