TLDR
Ab initio calculations of realistic interface structures provide insight into the origin of the induced moments and bring support to this new approach for creating room-temperature multiferroics.Abstract:
With only a few known useful room-temperature multiferroics, other ways of achieving materials showing magnetism as well as electrical polarization are sought. The discovery that the ferroelectric BaTiO3 also shows magnetism at room temperature at the interface with iron or cobalt marks a new approach to achieving multiferroic properties.read more
