Abstract

Magnetic properties of materials relevant to the interface or surface provide a promising artificial material basis for the strategic design of spintronic devices. Giant magnetoresistance (GMR), spin accumulation, and spin transfer torque (STT), etc. are typical examples of such interface-related magnetic phenomena. Recent enormous and rapid growth of technology also allows to control magnetization orientation, magnetic phases, and spin polarization by manipulating the interface with an electric field without using either a magnetic field or an electric current. This leads to a drastic reduction in the power consumption. A full understanding of the interface-related magnetic phenomena is thus of crucial importance for the development of a major new direction of less energy dissipative spintronics. In this chapter, selected topics of interface-related magnetic phenomena and the fundamental physics underlying are described, placing a special emphasis on electric-field-induced strain transfer effect on the magnetic properties in multiferroic heterostructures.
