Abstract
A giant magnetopiezoelectric effect has been revealed in samarium ferroborate. The effective piezomodulus is increased more than twice in the antiferromagnetic phase and it is reduced by a high magnetic field. The nature of the effect is in the joint contribution of both magnetoelectric and magnetoelastic interactions. The evolu-tion of this contribution in the magnetic field is caused by the growth of the magnetic energy including the spin reorientation. Additional data concerning the behavior of the high-frequency magnetocapacitance have been obtained. The parameters of magnetoelectric and magnetoelastic couplings and the magnetic anisotropy constant in the basal plane have been determined.
