Core-shell magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) have recently gained popularity thanks to their capability in inducing a local electric polarization upon an applied magnetic field and . This work estimates the magnetoelectrical behavior, in terms of magnetoelectric coupling coefficient (αME), via finite element analysis of MENPs with different shapes under either static (DC bias) and time-variant (AC bias) external magnetic fields. With this approach, the dependence of the magnetoelectrical performance on the MENPs geometrical features can be directly derived. Results show that MENPs with a more elongated morphology exhibits a superior αME if compared with spherical nanoparticles of similar volume, under both stimulation conditions analyzed. This response is due to the presence of a larger surface area at the interface between the magnetostrictive core and piezoelectric shell, and to the MENP geometrical orientation along the direction of the magnetic field. These findings pave a new way for the design of novel high-aspect ratio magnetic nanostructures with an improved magnetoelectric behaviour.
核壳型磁电纳米粒子(MENPs)近来因其在施加磁场时能够诱导局部电极化的能力而受到关注。 这项工作通过对不同形状的MENPs在静态(直流偏置)和时变(交流偏置)外部磁场下进行有限元分析,根据磁电耦合系数(αME)来估计磁电行为。通过这种方法,可以直接得出磁电性能对MENPs几何特征的依赖性。结果表明,在两种分析的刺激条件下,与体积相似的球形纳米粒子相比,具有更细长形态的MENPs表现出更高的αME。这种响应归因于磁致伸缩核与压电壳之间界面处存在更大的表面积,以及MENP沿磁场方向的几何取向。这些发现为设计具有改进磁电行为的新型高纵横比磁性纳米结构开辟了一条新途径。
