Abstract
Exploiting a more stabilized transmission strategy in magnetoelectric (ME) antennas for near-field communication under lower input power density is still challenging since the strain-mediated ME voltage is easily vulnerable to ambient interferences with significant anisotropy. In this work, a low-frequency (LF) receiving ME antenna system, consisting of transmitting coil and Ni0.8Zn0.2Sm0.02Fe1.98O4/PZT/Ni0.8Zn0.2Sm0.02Fe1.98O4 ME laminate, was proposed and established with the quasi-isotropic response, enhanced stabilities and limit of detection (LOD) of communication distance by capacitively-coupled mode. Experimental results showed that a more uniform receiving response in capacitance with 360° rotating of the ME antenna by a nearly circular response. Transmission stabilities were further evaluated by continuous collected data for 100 min, a near-flat capacitance response with standard Gaussian distribution (μ = 27.48nF and σ2 = 6.37 × 10−6nF) was obtained, and the estimated uncertainty shows one order of magnitude lower than that of voltage capturing mode. Under lower input power density of 15 μW/cm3, comparison studies of the LOD in transmission distance of the ME antennas were implemented, and the maximum effective communication distance of 100 cm for the ME antenna can be reached. The findings provide the possibility of using capacitively-coupled receiving mode of the ME antenna with enhanced stabilities under low input power density.
