Abstract

The resonant magnetoelectric (ME) effect in a ring-type structure of nickel–lead zirconate titanate–Metglas amorphous alloy (Metglas 2605SA1) has been studied. The use of ring geometry and magnetic layers with different signs of magnetostriction and comparable saturation fields led to a noticeable enhancement in the ME coefficient and a decrease in the optimal bias field, as compared with two-layer planar heterostructures. At the frequency of radial acoustic oscillations of the structure and under circular magnetization, the ME coefficient of 6.4 V (Oe·cm)−1 and ac field sensitivity of 0.6 V Oe−1 were obtained for a permanent bias field of 2 Oe.
