Case Study – Analysis, Modelling, Simulation – Multiferroic and Magnetoelectric Materials

Aurivillius-phase multiferroic ceramic microstructure
Multiferroic materials combine electrical, magnetic and structural functionality within a single material system. Their complex coupled behaviour makes them particularly dependent upon advanced modelling and simulation.
Electrosciences supports the investigation of multiferroic materials through computational analysis, reciprocal-space mapping, structural visualisation and advanced characterisation techniques. These methods enable researchers to understand how atomic-scale structural changes influence magnetic and electrical properties.
Modelling provides critical insight into coupling mechanisms and supports the design of future multifunctional devices for sensing, actuation and information technologies.
