Giant low-frequency magnetoelectric torque (MET) effect in polyvinylidene-fluoride (PVDF)-based MET device

doi:10.1088/1674-1056/26/6/067703

Abstract A polyvinylidene-fluoride (PVDF)-based magnetoelectric torque (MET) device is designed with elastic layer sandwiched by PVDF layers, and low-frequency MET effect is carefully studied. It is found that elastic modulus and thickness of the elastic layer have great influences on magnetoelectric (ME) voltage coefficient (α_ME) and working range of frequency in PVDF-based MET device. The decrease of the modulus and thickness can help increase the α_ME. However, it can also reduce the working range in the low frequency. By optimizing the parameters, the giant α_ME of 320 V/cm·Oe (1 Oe=79.5775 A·m^-1) at low frequency (1 Hz) can be obtained. The present results may help design PVDF-based MET low-frequency magnetic sensor with improved magnetic sensitivity in a relative large frequency range.
