Funded Activity Summary

Complex Phenomena and Phase Transitions in Ferroric Perovskites. The ultimate aim of this project is to identify high performance, multiferroic magnetoelectrics suitable for use in the next generation electronic devices. These oxides exhibit a strong interaction between the polarisation and magnetic response. Understanding the factors that control the response of such materials to applied magnetic and electric fields is critical to the discovery, optimization and, ultimately, industrial exploitation of such materials. Through comprehensive experimental and theoretical studies of a number of such materials this project will enhance the ability of industry to develop new and improved materials. Development of advanced materials is a designated National Research Priority area.
