(a) Original Elmitec sample holder without cap (right) and sample holder with integrated out-of-plane electromagnet placed on the test bench. (b) Magnetic field produced at the sample position with the in-plane electromagnet sample holder. (c) Experimental realisation of out-of-plane electrical poling. The sample is mounted on an insulating spacer with a cut-out for wire connection. On the left of the sample surface some silver paint is visible that was used to assure good electrical contact with the top cap (not shown). (d) XMCD images of an LSMO thin film on a piezoelectric substrate with different applied voltages, showing hysteretic behaviour (Pesquera et al., 2013BB14). The piezoelectric substrate responds to the applied voltage by changing its lattice size and the strain transmitted to the thin film results in a modified magnetic domain structure due to the magnetoelastic effect or inverse magnetostriction. Field of view is 50 µm.
