Abstract:
The research for lead-free magnetoelectric (ME) multiferroic composite materials has increased considerably because they are environmentally friendly. For composites with 0-3 connectivity, synthesis with lead-free phase has proven challenging to obtain high values of ME coupling. This work reports the successful synthesis of the KNN/CFO composite (K0.5N0.5NbO3/CoFe2O4) by conventional synthesis process. XRD and SEI showed two well-defined, also presenting good electric polarization values. The ME coefficient was very high, reaching values close to 2850 mV cm-1·Oe at the electromechanical resonance frequency. The dipolar interaction between the electric charges and magnetic moments of the KNN and CFO phases was responsible for the high value and the behavior of dependence on the applied magnetic field.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
