Abstract Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO 3, BFO) as one of the few single-phase room-temperature
multiferroics, has aroused ever-increasing enthusiasm in research communities during the …

Multiferroic materials, which show simultaneous ferroelectric and magnetic ordering, exhibit
unusual physical properties—and in turn promise new device applications—as a result of …

The growth and characterization of functional oxide thin films that are ferroelectric, magnetic,
or both at the same time are reviewed. The evolution of synthesis techniques and how …

Multiferroics are singular materials that can exhibit simultaneously electric and magnetic
orders. Some are ferroelectric and ferromagnetic and provide the opportunity to encode …

BiFeO3 is one of the most studied multiferroic materials. Both its magnetic and ferroelectric
properties can be influenced by doping. A large body of work on the doped material has …

Complex perovskite oxides exhibit a rich spectrum of properties, including magnetism,
ferroelectricity, strongly correlated electron behaviour, superconductivity and …

Multiferroic materials, or materials that simultaneously possess two or more ferroic order
parameters, have returned to the forefront of materials research. Driven by the desire to …

In this paper, we review the recent research on the functionalization of multiferroics for
spintronics applications. We focus more particularly on antiferromagnetic and ferroelectric …

Using a linear combination of atomic orbitals approach, we report a systematic comparison
of various density functional theory (DFT) and hybrid exchange-correlation functionals for …

We review and critique the recent developments on multifunctional oxide materials, which
are gaining a good deal of interest. Recongnizing that this is a vast area, the focus of this …
