We study the electric field control of exchange-spring (ES) behavior in a piezoelectric/ES multi-layer using the micromagnetic simulation method. In the composite, PZT or PZN-PT forms the piezoelectric substrate, while the ES bilayer is composed of hard-magnetic (HM) CoFe2O4 (CFO) and soft-magnetic (SM) Fe3O4 or Co43Fe43B14 materials. The stress as a function of electric-field strength (E) and the external magnetic field was set to align in plane. The results reveal an E-sensitive magnetic property in the PZN-PT/Co43Fe43B14/CFO system. The ES bilayer in this system experienced a transition from rigid magnetism to ES behavior with E changing from 2 MV/m to −2 MV/m. The E-related nucleation field and switching field exhibit strong dependences on the thickness ratio between the HM and SM phases. Additionally, when the magnetic field was applied at an acute angle to the easy axis of the HM or the SM phase, a multi-jump hysteresis loop was observed under a negative E bias. These results may be attributed to a ...
