Abstract
Magnetoelectric composites (x)PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3(PZT)-(1-x)NiFe2O4 (NFO) with x values of 0.15, 0.30, 0.45, 0.55, 0.75, and 0.85 mol% were obtained by traditional solid phase reaction. The measured magnetic and magnetostriction properties are strongly dependent upon the molar fraction (1-x) of the NFO in the composites. The maximum magnetostriction coefficient of -52.4 ppm was observed in 0.3PZT-0.7NFO composite ceramic. All the magnetostriction in the composites is larger than the reported values. The larger magnetostriction would result from the magnetoelectric (ME) effect of the composites. We propose a model of the magnetostriction within the composites consisting of strain and polarization. The relationship between the ME effect and magnetostriction is discussed in the qualitative features of this model. This magnetoelectric composite material maintains a strong magnetostrictive effect, which can be used in multifunctional sensors. It will provide new ideas for the design of multifunctional sensors in the future.
