强关联氧化物体系的应力调制及多场耦合效应

The present proposal will focus our attention on strain modulation and multi-field coupling effect in strongly correlated electronic perovskite oxide, such as CMR, multiferric and superconducting oxide et al. A series of epitaxial single crystal films will be grown by pulse laser deposition technique on the piezoelectric and piezomagnetic substrates, including various electron doping concentration, superconductor/insulator heterostructure films with different magnetic configuration and phase separation features films. In order to realize the effective modification of compressive and tensile strain in the special directions of the films under electric and magnetic fields, we would choose the PMN-PT and Teflon-D single crystal substrates with the largest electric polarization and rather large magnetostriction. Effect of dynamic strain-modification on the films could provide some direct evidences on important science questions, such as the novel physical properties, electronic structure, electron-hole symmetry, insulator-metal/superconductivity transition, Kondo-like spin scattering, proximate and interface effects and so on from the low temperature and high magnetic field experiments. At the same time, the structural analysis and theoretical simulation approaches will also be done. And the comparative studies will be necessary for polycrystalline and single crystal bulk samples.Our results will be helpful to understanding the physical mechanism and could also provide some important basic research data and experimental evidences.
