Abstract
Magnetoelectric coupling is a key strategy to obtain high-performance microwave absorption materials. Especially for carbon matrix composites, the absorbing capacity can be optimized via the tuning of the graphitization degree and the content ratio of the magnetic and dielectric components. Based on this theory, a simple strategy, consisting of the solvothermal method and annealing in an inert atmosphere, is adopted in this study to combine CoNi magnetic alloys with graphitized carbon into micron-scale composite spherical particles. Additionally, special attention is paid to the correlation among the graphitization degree of carbon matrix, component proportion, and dielectric response ability, so as to achieve a flexible micromorphology design and a tunable microwave absorption performance. When the pyrolysis temperature is offset to the best of 700 ℃, a broadband absorption of 6.61 GHz (reflection loss < - 10 dB) is achieved at an ultrathin matching thickness of 1.9 mm. Adjusting the carbon content can further optimize the impedance matching and realize a high-intensity absorption with a reflection loss of - 72.7 dB. Our work proposes a useful strategy to realize the effective combination of the magnetic and dielectric loss mechanisms and boost the microwave absorption capacity toward achieving the desired broadband and a high-efficiency absorption performance.

Abstract
This article is written on behalf of many colleagues, collaborators, and researchers in the field of complex oxides as well as current and former students and postdocs who continue to enable and undertake cutting-edge research in the field of multiferroics, magnetoelectrics, and the pursuit of electric-field control of magnetism. What I present is something that is extremely exciting from both a fundamental science and applications perspective and has the potential to revolutionize our world, particularly from a sustainability perspective. To realize this potential will require numerous new innovations, both in the fundamental science arena as well as translating these scientific discoveries into real applications. Thus, this article will attempt to bridge the gap between fundamental materials physics and the actual manifestations of the physical concepts into real-life applications. I hope this article will help spur more translational research within the broad materials community.

Abstract
Multiferroic nanomaterials have attracted great interest due to simultaneous two or more properties such as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, and ferroelasticity, which can promise a broad application in multifunctional, low-power consumption, environmentally friendly devices. Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3, BFO) exhibits both (anti)ferromagnetic and ferroelectric properties at room temperature. Thus, it has played an increasingly important role in multiferroic system. In this review, we systematically discussed the developments of BFO nanomaterials including morphology, structures, properties, and potential applications in multiferroic devices with novel functions. Even the opportunities and challenges were all analyzed and summarized. We hope this review can act as an updating and encourage more researchers to push on the development of BFO nanomaterials in the future.

Abstract
The ability to control magnetism of materials via electric field enables a myriad of technological innovations in information storage, sensing, and computing. We use ionic-liquid-assisted ferroelectric switching to demonstrate reversible modulation of interfacial magnetism in a multiferroic heterostructure composed of ferromagnetic (FM) La0.8Sr0.2MnO3 and ferroelectric (FE) PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3. It is shown that ionic liquids can be used to persistently and reversibly switch a large area of a FE film. This is a prerequisite for polarized neutron reflectometry (PNR) studies that are conducted to directly probe magnetoelectric coupling of the FE polarization to the interfacial magnetization.

Abstract
Multiferroic La-doped BiFeO3 thin films have been prepared by a sol-gel plus spin-coating process, and the local magnetoelectric coupling effect has been investigated by the magnetic-field-assisted scanning probe microscopy connected with a ferroelectric analyzer. The local ferroelectric polarization response to external magnetic fields is observed and a so-called optimized magnetic field of ~40 Oe is obtained, at which the ferroelectric polarization reaches the maximum. Moreover, we carry out the magnetic-field-dependent surface conductivity measurements and illustrate the origin of local magnetoresistance in the La-doped BiFeO3 thin films, which is closely related to the local ferroelectric polarization response to external magnetic fields. This work not only provides a useful technique to characterize the local magnetoelectric coupling for a wide range of multiferroic materials but also is significant for deeply understanding the local multiferroic behaviors in the BiFeO3-based systems.

Abstract
Bilayer magnetoelectric (ME) nanofilms composed of Bi0.9Nd0.1FeO3 (BNF) and Ni0.55Zn0.45Fe2O4 (NZF) were fabricated on the Pt(111)/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates via sol-gel and a subsequent rapid thermal process with different growth sequences of BNF and NZF forming the following layered structures: BNF/NZF and NZF/BNF. The phase composition, microstructure, and ferroelectric, dielectric, ferromagnetic, and ME coupling properties of the composites were investigated at room temperature. Structural characterization by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy showed that there are no other impurity phases but BNF and NZF, and the nucleation barrier caused that it is easier for NZF and BNF to grow on each other rather than on the surface of Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si. The tests of the physical properties indicated that such heterostructures present both good ferroelectric, ferromagnetic, and dielectric properties and the in-plane ME coupling coefficient α E at room temperature but some discrepancies also exist, which can be attributed to an interfacial effect, in other words, the deposition sequences of the constituent phases have a great influence on the properties of bilayer films.
