Information
has glosseng: Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3, also commonly referred to as BFO in Materials Science) is an inorganic chemical compound with a perovskite structure. It is one of the most promising lead-free piezoelectric materials by exhibiting multiferroic properties at room temperature. Multiferroic materials exhibit ferroelectric or anti-ferroelectric properties in combination with ferromagnetic (or antiferromagnetic) properties in the same phase. As a result, an electric field can induce change in magnetization and an external magnetic field can induce electric polarization. This phenomenon is known as the magnetoelectric effect (ME) effect and materials exhibiting this effect are called magnetoelectrics or seignetto magnets. Further proof of it being ferromagnetic is that it produces a hysteresis loop during ferroelectric characterization. The ability to couple to either the electric or the magnetic polarisation allows an additional degree of freedom in device designs.
