In this material, a converse magnetoelectric effect and especially, an electric field-induced magnetic anisotropy and magnetization switching process have been observed at the changing stages of applied electric voltage. In addition, a significant relative change in magnetization, above 100%, is obtained, which facilitates practical applications of the materials. This opens possibilities in achieving new types of memory devices, the low energy consumption devices, as well as other functionalities, such as voltage-tunable field sensing. A simple theory based on strain-mediated magnetic-electric coupling is also presented to understand the origin of the change in magnetic properties of the materials. date: 2014 date_type: published publisher: IEEE official_url: DOI: 10.1109/TMAG.2014.2304518 full_text_status: none publication: IEEE Transactions on Magnetics volume: 50 number: 6 pagerange: 2005204 refereed: TRUE issn: 0018-9464 citation: Nguyen, Thi Minh Hong and Pham, Thai Ha and Le, Viet Cuong and Pham, T.
