Magnetostrictive Multilayers for Magnetoelectric Sensors
Novel magnetostrictive multilayers for magnetoelectric (ME) 2-2 structures are explored with an emphasis on the control of magnetic domain processes for obtaining highly sensitive and low-noise magnetic field sensors. Different sputtered magnetic film systems with high piezomagnetic coefficients are investigated by in-operando methods under consideration of various processing parameters. The main goal of research is to decrease the limit of magnetic field detection of the ME sensors for the endeavored biomagnetic measurements.
