We report about the manipulation of magnetism of self-assembled iron oxide nanoparticle (NP) monolayers on top of BaTiO3 (BTO) single crystals. Magnetoelectric coupling (MEC) as shown in both the magnetization and magneto-electric ac susceptibility (MEACS) measurements is observed. Both the magnetization and MEACS as function of temperature show abrupt jumps at the BTO phase transitions temperatures, which is attributed to strain-mediated MEC from the BTO onto the NPs. We find that a Ti sticking layer and an Au embedding layer play a crucial role to maximize the MEC effect. Moreover, using polarized neutron reflectivity (PNR) we observe a change of the in-depth magnetic scattering length density upon changing an applied electric field. Grazing incident small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirm a hexagonal close-packed supercrystalline order of the NPs.
