Description:
Author(s): Ming Zheng, Hao Ni, Xiaoke Xu, Yaping Qi, Xiaomin Li, and Ju Gao Controlling physical properties using light or electric field, rather than magnetic field or electrical current, is of keen interest for tomorrow’s energy-efficient, high-density, nonvolatile memory applications. The authors combine the effects of electric-field-induced ferroelastic strain and photoexcited delocalization for significant tuning of electronic transport in manganite-based multiferroic heterostructures. The strong correlation of these effects is essentially driven by electronic phase separation. These results provide a framework for realizing multifield tuning of phase separation in complex oxides, for advanced device physics. [Phys. Rev. Applied 9, 044039] Published Thu Apr 26, 2018
