The emergence of high room temperature in-plane and out-of-plane magnetostriction in polycrystalline CoFe2O4 film

Abstract The polycrystalline CoFe2O4 (CFO) film on cantilever substrate of silicon was grown using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method and investigated its in-plane and out-of-plane magnetostrictive strain at room temperature (300 K) using the indigenous optical Cantilever Beam Magnetometer (CBM)....

Sumario:Abstract The polycrystalline CoFe2O4 (CFO) film on cantilever substrate of silicon was grown using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method and investigated its in-plane and out-of-plane magnetostrictive strain at room temperature (300 K) using the indigenous optical Cantilever Beam Magnetometer (CBM). The film shows a high compressive magnetostrictive strain of ‒ 387 ppm and ‒ 708 ppm for in-plane and out-of-plane configurations, respectively. Considerably, the magnetostrictive strain loops (λ‒H) possess a certain degree of hysteresis with a symmetric butterfly shape. The origin of large compressive magnetostriction of CFO film is attributed to the non-180° domain wall motion followed by 90° domain rotation. The large values of saturation magnetostrictive strain make CFO film a suitable candidate in sensor design for different purposes.
