Abstract
The (202) epitaxial Eu0.65Y0.35MnO3 (EYMO) thin films on (111) Nb:SrTiO3(NSTO) substrates are prepared by pulsed laser deposition. The structural, dielectric, and magnetic properties of EYMO thin films are characterized. The temperature dependent magnetization clearly shows an antiferromagnetic ordering at â¼Â 30 K. The weak ferromagnetism at low temperature, probably ascribed to the strain resulting from the mismatch between the substrate and thin film, is identified. The measured polarization-electric field loop and dielectric data demonstrate that the as-prepared EYMO thin film is weakly ferroelectric, and the dielectric anomaly at â¼Â 30 K indicates clearly the spin-phonon (magnetoelectric) coupling.
