Abstract

We report the strain dependence of remanent polarization and coercive field of epitaxial (001) _p BiFeO ₃ films. Our measurements reveal that the large spontanoues polarization of BiFeO ₃ is indeed intrinsic, the remanent polarization of (001) _p BiFeO ₃ thin films has a strong strain dependence, even stronger than (001) PbTiO ₃ films, and the coercive field of BiFeO ₃ films is also tunable. In addition, the low coercive filed and the reduced leakage current in (001) _p BiFeO ₃ membranes allows us to achieve a fatigue-free switching behavior to 10 ¹⁰ cycles. This experimental result strongly suggests that epitaxial (001) _p BiFeO ₃ thin films are very promising materials for non-volatile memories and magnetoelectric devices.
