  The magnetic domain structure of the multiferroic Bi1-xDyxFeO3 (BDFO)
deposited on ZnO at the macroscopic level has been demonstrated in this paper.
Magnetic properties are observed by saturated magnetic and ferroelectric
hysteresis loops at room temperature. The coupling behaviour and magnetic
transition are verified using Multimode Atomic Force Microscope by applying
bias between sample and MFM tip. ZnO thin film of 300 nm was deposited by
dielectric sputtering using a ZnO target on Si p-type conducting (.0001-0005
{\Omega} cm) substrate. BDFO thin films of 300 nm were deposited on Si/ZnO
using PLD (Pulsed laser deposition) technique. It is observed that BDFO thin
films integrated with ZnO film shows the coexistence of ferromagnetic and
ferroelectric ordering with significant coupling at room temperature.
Integration of BDFO films with ZnO piezoelectric thin film shows the potential
in MEMS applications as well as in Memory devices and strong history dependent
systems.
