Credit: SciTechDaily.comTokyo Institute of Technology scientists have developed BFCO nanodots for efficient and non-destructive memory technology, promising improvements in low-power magnetic memory devices.Traditional memory gadgets are unpredictable and the current non-volatile ones rely on either ferromagnetic or ferroelectric materials for information storage. As a result, data can be written using electric fields, which is more energy-efficient than generating magnetic fields, and read using magnetic fields, which prevents the destructive read-out process.In a considerable turning point for multiferroic memory devices, a group of researchers led by Professor Masaki Azuma and Assistant Professor Kei Shigematsu from Tokyo Institute of Technology in Japan has effectively developed nanodots with single ferroelectric and ferromagnetic domains.BFCO 60-nm nanodots, with single domain structures, hold pledge for high-density and low-power nonvolatile magnetic memory gadgets.” Such a single-domain structure of ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism would be a perfect platform for examining BFCO as an electric-field composing magnetic read-out memory device, and multi-domain structures provide a play area for essential research study,” says Shigematsu.Nonvolatile magnetic memory gadgets are important for various electronic applications as they keep stored information even when power is turned off.
