Influence of Conductivity on Frequency Characteristics of Magnetoelectric Voltage in a Multilayer Ferrite-Piezoelectric Film Structure
Magnetoelectric effect in a multilayer structure fabricated by the thick film ceramic technology was investigated. The structure consisted of nickel-zinc ferrite and lead zirconate-titanate layers. It was shown that frequency dependence of the layers conductivity leads to formation of the maximum in the frequency dependence of magnetoelectric voltage generated by the structure under external field conditions. Investigated structures are promising for design of magnetic field sensors.
