多铁性复合材料的力磁电多场耦合与结构特性

Multiferroics is a kind of smart materials which combines at least ferroelectric and ferromagnetic behaviors. Multiferroics adds degree of freedom in the design of devices, and possesses both great marketing potentials and plenty of fundamental scientific research possibilities. The proposal aims at revealing the microstructure evolutions, and their relationship with the magnetoelectric coupling of the multiferroic composites (both of bulk and thin films), upon the applied thermal, mechanical, and magnetic (or electrical) fields. The effects of both the external fields and the microstructure characteristics of the multiferroic composites will be evaluated, providing the experimental basis in designing novel high performance multicomposites. Based on the experimental results, micromechanic model(s) of magnetoelectric coupling will be provided, which aims at predicting or evaluating the magnetoelectric behavior of the multiferroic composites under the application. The reults will be of great importance for the deepening and widening of the discipline of Mechanics of Smart Materials, bridging the gap between the two disiplines of Mechanics of solids, and Materials Science and Engineering. It will also of great importance for the design and development of the new generation magnetoelectric materials and devices.
