The magnetic and magnetoelectric (ME) properties of as-deposited and annealed BaTiO3-CoFe2O4 nanocomposite films with CoFe2O4 (CFO) nano-rods embedded in a BaTiO3 matrix have been studied and compared. The BaTiO3 phase in the as-deposited film changed from (0 0 1) preferred orientation to (1 0 0) orientation after annealing at 950 degrees C for 2 h. In the meantime, the magnetization increased dramatically from 200 to 380 emu cm(-3). Distinct changes in magnetic contrast of the CFO nano-rods were observed by magnetic force microscopy under application of an electric field to the composite film. ME voltage coefficient as large as 4.9 x 10(-9) sm(-1) or 1.2 VOe(-1) cm(-1) was estimated for the annealed film under 10 MV m(-1), although the value was much lower for the as-deposited film. It is shown that higher ME effects can be found in films with good phase homogeneity, poly-domains and unrelaxed stress.
