Flexible Lithium Ferrite Nanopillar Arrays for Bending Stable Microwave Magnetism

Recent development in magnetic nanostructures has promoted flexible electronics into the application of integrated devices. However, the magnetic properties of flexible devices strongly depend on the bending states. In order to realize the design of new flexible devices driven by an external field, the first step is to make the magnetic properties insensitive to the bending. Herein, a series of LiFe5O8 nanopillar arrays were fabricated, whose microwave magnetic properties can be modulated by tuning the nanostructure. This work demonstrates that nanostructure engineering is useful to control the bending sensitivity of microwave magnetism and further design stable flexible devices.
