摘要
The low frequency magnetic field detection ability of magnetoresistive (MR)sensor is seriously affected by 1/f noise. At present, the method to suppress the influence of low frequency noise is mainly to modulate the measured magnetic field by mechanical resonance. In this paper, a novel modulation concept employing a magnetoelectric coupling effect is proposed. A design method of modulation structure based on an equivalent magnetic circuit model (EMCM) and a single domain model of in-plane moment was established. An EMCM was established to examine the relationship between the permeability of flux modulation film (FMF) and modulation efficiency, which was further verified through a finite element simulation model (FESM). Then, the permeability modulated by the voltage of a ferroelectric/ferromagnetic (FE/FM) multiferroic heterostructure was theoretically studied. Combining these studies, the modulation structure and the material were further optimized, and a FeSiBPC/PMN-PT sample was prepared. Experimental results show that the actual magnetic susceptibility modulation ability of FeSiBPC/PMN-PT reached 150 times, and is in good agreement with the theoretical prediction. A theoretical modulation efficiency higher than 73% driven by a voltage of 10 V in FeSiBPC/PMN-PT can be obtained. These studies show a new concept for magnetoelectric coupling application, and establish a new method for magnetic field modulation with a multiferroic heterostructure.
