By doping Ca element into BiFeO3 thin films, the electronic transport properties can be altered, and modulation with a magnetic field can impact the electron transport behavior of devices, which is crucial for enhancing the application of BiFeO3 materials in higher density memory devices.
Bi1-xCaxFeO3 (x = 0, 0.1) thin films were synthesized by a sol-gel spin coating method. A diode-like current-voltage characteristic was investigated in a Bi0.9Ca0.1FeO3 (BCFO) thin film. By Ca element doping, the current-voltage characteristic was changed from a traditional symmetric variation to a diode-like behavior. Besides, the modulation effects of a magnetic field on Pt/BCFO/Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si devices have been investigated. Using some micro-analysis methods, such as x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy, possible mechanisms were discussed on the basis of an oxygen vacancy modulated Schottky-like barrier. The control of the resistance state with the magnetic field means larger degrees of freedom, and this is crucial for further application of BiFeO3-based materials in higher density memory devices.
