Control of tensile stress on inducing formation and tunability of (100) oriented Pb x Sr1−x TiO3 thin films

Mechanism of Doping-Induced Orientation of Magnetic Phase in a Sol–Gel-Derived Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4/BaTiO3 Multiferroic Thin Film with High Magnetoelectric Coupling

“…The sol–gel method features ease of setup, flexible control of the phase constituents and varied dopants, cost-effectiveness, and large-area application . Doping-induced orientation could occur often in sol–gel-derived thin films, being independent of substrate selection and epitaxy. − The silicon substrate can be chosen as the base of fabricating 1–3-type ME coupling thin films, when designing the BaTiO 3 -Ni 0.5 Zn 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 composite thin film by the sol–gel method. All of the constituent elements are mixed together in the sol precursor originally.…”
