Dynamical manipulation of oxygen ion (O2-) at metal/oxide heterointerfaces is widely demonstrated to tailor numerous physical and chemical properties and facilitate creating novel functionalities significantly. The traditional works mainly focus on electric control of O2- dynamical behavior and related interface characteristics. Here, an alternative strategy is reported to modulate O2- transport and interfacial magnetism via a significant strain induced by shape memory effect, which is different from the conventional magnetoelastic coupling mechanism. By driving the martensite to austenite transition in TiNi(Nb) shape memory alloy substrates, a significant and tunable strain is exerted on Pt/Co/MgO heterostructure, which promotes interfacial O2- migration in a nonvolatile manner. The O2- migration induces an orbital reconstruction of Co to tune the orbital magnetism noticeably, which strengthens the interfacial magnetic anisotropy energy by two times to a striking value of 0.95 erg cm(-2). Besides, the overall magnetic anisotropy is broadly tunable from in-plane to perpendicular direction by an elaborate strain engineering with changing Co thickness. This work develops a nonelectrical oxygen manipulation for tailoring ion-controlled interfacial properties universally and also clarifies the magnetoionic coupling origin for enriching the oxygen-related orbital physics and functional device applications.
