Abstract
Multi-functional materials have been studied intensively for the last few decades for their interesting, coupled physical properties, and wide variety of potential applications: including high-density multi-state digital storage and small-scale magnetic or electric field sensors. Multi functional materials are a class of materials in which the electric dipole (positive and negative ends of the molecule) alignment, and magnetic properties are coupled. Thus, generating an electric response when the material is in a magnetic field and vice versa. However, there are few materials that exhibit this multi-functional behavior. Additionally, out of the materials that have been synthesized, many are lacking characterization data. Therefore, it is challenging to develop structure-property relationships and design principles for multi-functional materials. Our goal is to develop a framework such that we can properly engineer these materials or find a relationship between the crystal structure to the magnetic and dielectric properties. To achieve this goal, we will make a series of these multi-functional materials to understand these structure-property relationships. Structural characterization such as x-ray diffraction will determine trends in material structure. We plan on using magnetometry and dielectric spectroscopy under applied field conditions to study the functional properties.
