We have utilized the antiferromagnetic nature and structural/chemical compatibility of La$_{0.45}$Sr$_{0.55}$MnO$_{3}$ with highly spin polarized La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_{3}$ to prepare epitaxial exchange bias couples. A robust exchange…
We have performed magnetic measurements like temperature (T), cooling field (HFC) dependence of exchange bias (EB) and training effect to investigate the magnetic nature of the interface of the Fe/Ir20Mn80 systems. Thin film bilayer samples…
A novel vertical hysteresis loop shift is observed for a bilayer thin film of Ni80Fe20/SrRuO3 (1:2 thickness ratio) on SrTiO3 substrate, after field cooled through the Curie temperature ~125 K of SrRuO3, whereas no shift is found for zero…
We report the structural and physical properties of epitaxial Bi2FeCrO6 thin films on epitaxial SrRuO3 grown on (100)-oriented SrTiO3 substrates by pulsed laser ablation. The 300 nm thick films exhibit both ferroelectricity and magnetism at…
Exchange bias (EB) shifts are commonly reported for the ferromagnetic (FM)/antiferromagnetic (AFM) bilayer systems. While stoichiometric ordered Sm$_{2}$NiMnO$_{6}$ (SNMO) and BaTiO$_{3}$ (BTO) are known to possesses FM and diamagnetic…
We report structural and magnetic properties of multilayers composed of thin layers of the half metallic ferromagnetic Heusler compound Co2MnGe and layers of Au, Cr and the Heusler compound Cu2MnAl. The hysteresis loops measured at low…
Positive exchange bias has been observed in the Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$/Ir$_{20}$Mn$_{80}$ bilayer system via soft x-ray resonant magnetic scattering. After field cooling of the system through the blocking temperature of the antiferromagnet, an…
Spintronics exploits the magnetoresistance effects to store or sense the magnetic information. Since the magnetoresistance strictly depends on the magnetic anisotropy of the system, it is fundamental to set a defined anisotropy to the…
We report the discovery of a positive exchange bias between Ni80Fe20 (Py) and twined (10-10)-Cr2O3 film near its blocking temperature (TB) when it is cooled in an in-plane magnetic field applied along 45 degrees from the two spin…
In epitaxial (111) oriented Ni$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$/Fe$_{50}$Mn$_{50}$ bilayers, we separate two distinct behaviors: unidirectional anisotropy (exchange bias) in thick Fe$_{50}$Mn$_{50}$, and enhanced coercivity in thin Fe$_{50}$Mn$_{50}$. By…
The magnetic properties of Co (<D>=15 nm, <L>=130nm) nanowires are reported. In oxidized wires, we measure large exchange bias fields of the order of 0.1 T below T ~ 100 K. The onset of the exchange bias, between the ferromagnetic core and…
Magnetic proximity effect of a topological insulator in contact with a ferromagnet is reported in thin film bilayers of 15 nm thick $BiSbTe_3$ on either 15 or 40 nm thick $SrRuO_3$ on (100) $SrTiO_3$ wafers. Magneto transport results of the…

We report on the occurrence of exchange bias on laser-ablated granular thin films composed of Co nanoparticles embedded in amorphous zirconia matrix. The deposition method allows controlling the degree of oxidation of the Co particles by…
The switching dynamics of a single-domain BiFeO3/CoFe heterojunction is modeled and key parameters such as interface exchange coupling coefficient are extracted from experimental results. The lower limit of the magnetic order response time…
First-principles density-functional theory calculations show switching magnetization by 90 degree can be achieved in ultrathin BFO film by applying external electric-field. Up-spin carriers appear to the surface with positive field while…
