研究目的
Investigating the feasibility of spin, ferroelectric and optical interactions in multiferroic tunnel junctions (MFTJs) and their potential as information carriers in data storages.
研究成果
The study demonstrates the feasibility of spin, ferroelectric, and optical interactions in MFTJs, leading to multiple resistance states and nearly 100% spin-polarized photocurrent. These findings suggest that spin, ferroelectric, and optical indices can simultaneously serve as information carriers in data storages, paving the way for developing efficient data memories and multifunctional devices.
研究不足
The study is theoretical and relies on computational models. The band gap of BiFeO3 in the model systems differs from the experimental value, which may affect the accuracy of the predicted multiferroic photovoltaic effect.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses the spin-electron-photon resolved theory to investigate the interactions among spin, ferroelectric, and optical indices in MFTJs. The quantum transport calculation is performed in Nanodcal package, combining the real-space density functional theory with the Keldysh Nonequilibrium Green’s Function formalism.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The study focuses on La2/3Sr1/3MnO3/BiFeO3/Fe4N MFTJs, with tetragonal BiFeO3 as the barrier and highly spin-polarized Fe4N and half-metallic La2/3Sr1/3MnO3 as electrodes.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The study utilizes the Nanodcal package for quantum transport calculations, with specific parameters for the exchange-correlation potential, Brillouin zone sampling, and convergence criteria.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The study involves calculating the spin-polarized conductance, tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR), tunneling electroresistance (TER), and photoresponse function under linearly polarized light irradiation.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The study analyzes the induced photocurrent, spin polarization of the photoresponse, and the effects of ferroelectric and ferromagnetic states on the photocurrent.
