Research progress in mechanical experiments and theory of magnetoelectric composite materials

Magnetoelectric composite materials possess the properties of both ferromagnetism and ferroelectricity, and more importantly, the magnetoelectric coupling effect. This kind of functional materials have great potential applications in the fields of novel magnetic-electric devices, spintronics devices, and high performance information storage, and have become one new hot research topic in the field of functional materials. In this paper, we reviewed the experimental studies of the magnetoelectric coupling effect, as well as the development of the multi-field instrument for micro/nano-mechanical tests and the corresponding characterization methods. In addition, studies of the multi-field coupling constitutive theory, fracture mechanics and multi-scale simulation methods were also reviewed. Furthermore, some suggestions were presented for the future work by summarizing the shortcomings of the existing research.
