Popis: Magneto-optic Kerr effect microscopy and nanofocus X-ray diffraction are combined to investigate the local mapping of the magnetoelectric microcomposite properties of ZnO microrods coated with an amorphous (Fe90Co10)78Si12B10 layer. We follow the magnetic domain behavior and lattice deformation upon applying an external magnetic field. In addition to the expected field induced strain, we observe a local magnetic induced strain in the 10−5 range in the ZnO localized near the (Fe90Co10)78Si12B10 /ZnO interface.
