Abstract
We have studied the influence of the connectivity pattern, the nature of the piezoelectric material, and rod thickness on the properties of magnetoelectric composites with the composition 50 vol % PZT/50 vol % NiCo0.02Cu0.02Mn0.1Fe1.8O4 − δ (where PZT stands for various commercially available lead zirconate titanate based piezoelectric materials). The results indicate that the magnetoelectric conversion efficiency of the rod composites with any connectivity pattern (1-1, 1-3, or 3-1) is 10–20% higher than that of laminate composites. The largest magnetoelectric conversion coefficient ΔE/ΔH is offered by the 1-1 connectivity composites. The ΔE/ΔH of the composites correlates with both their piezoelectric sensitivity g 33 and the piezoelectric sensitivity of the corresponding piezoelectric materials. ΔE/ΔH is shown to be inversely proportional to the thickness of the piezoelectric and ferrite rods. The highest ΔE/ΔH at a frequency of 1 kHz, 450 mV/(cm Oe), has been reached in the PZT-36 based composites with 1-1 connectivity and 0.3-mm-thick rods.
