Abstract
Laminated magnetoelectric (ME) composites consisting of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric materials have been investigated and proved to realize strong ME coupling, which shows great benefits to fabricate high sensitivity ME magnetic sensors. In this work, optimized L–T mode ME composites consisting of heat-treated Metglas ribbons and [110]-oriented Mn-doped 0.71Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.29PbTiO3 (Mn-doped PMN-PT) single crystal fibers were reported, which achieves giant ME coupling and ultrahigh ME electric field coefficient of 4.26 × 104 V cm−1 Oe−1 at the electromechanical resonance. The equivalent magnetic noise of the ME sensor based on the proposed ME composites is only 2.89 fT Hz−1/2 at the electromechanical resonance, which exhibits great prospect in the application of precision magnetic field detection. Based on the characterization of heat-treated Metglas samples and the finite element simulation of the ME composites, the improved performance of the ME composites and ME sensors can be attributed to the enhanced properties of heat-treated Metglas (higher piezomagnetic coefficient d 33,m, higher induced magnetic flux density and lower mechanical loss) due to the enhancement of nanocrystallization and the stronger magnetic flux concentration effect corresponding to the dimension of the Metglas ribbons.
