Synthesis Strategies of Single-Phase and Composite Multiferroic Nanostructures

Ternary Fiber Mats of PVDF-HFP/Cellulose/LiFe5O8 Nanoparticles with Enhanced Electric, Magnetoelectric, and Antibacterial Properties: A Promising Approach for Magnetic and Electric Field-Responsive Antibacterial Coatings

“…2−5 The single-phase magnetoelctric multiferroics possess problems with limited magnetoelectric coupling, and difficulties in controlling and tuning their properties, which is a significant obstacle in the development and application of these materials. 6,7 This paved the way for the use of composite ME materials. Ceramic and polymer-based composite ME systems have emerged and bagged immense scientific interest due to their superior properties compared to single-phase systems.…”

“…The magnetoelectric (ME) effect revolves around the dynamic interplay between magnetic and electric properties within specific materials, leading to the generation of electric polarization in response to an external magnetic field or vice versa . This interaction has ignited immense interest due to its potential applications in sensors, actuators, energy harvesters, data storage, biomedical fields, etc. − The single-phase magnetoelctric multiferroics possess problems with limited magnetoelectric coupling, and difficulties in controlling and tuning their properties, which is a significant obstacle in the development and application of these materials. , This paved the way for the use of composite ME materials.
