Non-Volatile Electric-Field Toggling Between Antiferromagnetic States
epitaxial thin films. Electrically reversing the ferroelectric polarization deterministically within the same ferroelastic domain induces a reversible transition from a cycloidal to a collinear antiferromagnetic state, as directly visualized by scanning nitrogen vacancy (NV) magnetometry. These results bring insights into magnetoelectric devices for ultrafast and low-power spintronics.
