Abstract

A theory of the magnetoelectric effect in ferromagnetic-piezoelectric bilayer structures is considered for platelike samples. The magnetoelectric voltage coefficient is expressed through the parameters characterizing the magnetic and piezoelectric phases. It is shown that the magnetoelectric voltage coefficient considerably increases in the region of electromechanical resonance. The thickness ratio between the ferromagnetic and piezoelectric phases at which the magnetoelectric voltage coefficient is maximum is determined. The calculated magnetoelectric voltage coefficients for Permendur-PZT (lead zirconate titanate) structures are presented and compared with the experimental data.
