Abstract

We present the results on Giant magneto-impedance effect (GMI) in amorphous and nanocrystalline microwires at frequencies until 4 GHz, paying special attention to tailoring the frequency and magnetic field dependence of the GMI effect. Correlation between magnetoelastic anisotropy and magnetic field dependences of diagonal and off-diagonal impedance components are observed.
