Abstract:
Cubic Sillenite Bi25FeO40 (BFO) could become a new magneto-optical material due to its high concentration of Bi3+ and no birefringence. But its weak magnetism causes the magneto-optical properties to be far from the requirements of practical applications. Doping magnetic Fe3+ and Ni2+ ions to improve the magnetism and magneto-optical properties of BFO (Bi19Ni2.8Fe4.2O40) film on fluorine-doped tin oxide (BNFO/FTO) is discussed in this paper. Another focus of this paper is to discuss the magneto-optical properties modulated by the electric field. The cubic BNFO film has weak piezoelectric effects, which makes it difficult to modulate its magnetooptical effect by electric field. A polarity symmetry induced by the Schottky junction between Au metal layer and BNFO semiconductor layer (Au/BNFO) compensates for cubic symmetry, and the piezoelectric effect can be improved. By applying an electric field, its magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) ellipticity |Psi F| gradually decreases as a direct current voltage from 0 V to 10 V in a magnetic field of 2500 Oe, demonstrating the feasibility of this strategy. These results indicate a new way for highly symmetric magneto-optical materials to modulate magneto-optical effects in electric fields.
