Abstract:
The magnetocapacitance effect was investigated using impedance spectroscopy on single crystals of LuFe(2)O(4). The intrinsic impedance response could be separated from the interfacial response and showed a clear hysteresis loop below T(Ferri)∼240 K under the magnetic field. The neutron diffraction experiment under the magnetic field proves the origin of the dielectric property related to the motion of the nanosized ferromagnetic domain boundary. These results imply that the modification of the microscopic domain structure is responsible for the magnetoelectric effect in LuFe(2)O(4).

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
