Influence of the magnetoelastic interaction on the structural phase transitions in cubic ferromagnets is investigated on the basis of a Ginzburg-Landau theory. It is shown that for the case of a positive magnetic anisotropy constant the structural phase transitions are not accompanied by a spin-reorientation. In the magnetic state the high-temperature phase has small deformations caused by the ...

Room-temperature perpendicular magnetic anisotropy ~PMA! was observed in Ni/Pt multilayer films having 7–30 Å Ni and constant 3 Å Pt sublayer thickness, prepared by magnetron sputtering at an Ar sputtering pressure of 7 mTorr. To understand the origin of PMA, the magnetoelastic anisotropy was determined from delicate in situ stress and ex situ magnetostriction coefficient measurements. Tensile ...

The main advantage of magnetoelastic sensors in comparison with the classic wire ones or semiconductor ones is their marked sensitivity and higher resistance to environmental moisture. These properties predestinate them for use in civil engineering and geo-technological applications [2]. Magnetoelastic sensors of pressure force are currently based on the change of core permeability caused by me...

In response to a magnetic field impulse, magnetostrictive magnetoelastic sensors mechanically vibrate. These vibrations can be detected in several ways: optically from the amplitude modulation of a reflected laser beam, acoustically using a microphone or hydrophone, and by using a pickup coil to detect the magnetic flux emitted from the sensor. Earlier work has shown that the resonant frequency...

The main parameters of magnetoelastic resonators in the detection of chemical (i.e., salts, gases, etc.) or biological (i.e., bacteria, phages, etc.) agents are the sensitivity S (or external agent change magnitude per Hz change in the resonance frequency) and the quality factor Q of the resonance. We present an extensive study on the experimental determination of the Q factor in such magnetoel...

This paper presents the analysis, design and experimental evaluation of miniaturized magnetoelastic tags using frame-suspended hexagonal resonators. Magnetoelastic tags—also known as acousto-magnetic or magnetomechanical tags—are used in wireless detection systems—for example, electronic article surveillance and location mapping systems—that electromagnetically query the resonant response of th...

In the present work, a nanostructured ZnO layer was synthesized onto a Metglas magnetoelastic ribbon to immobilize hemoglobin (Hb) on it and study the Hb's electrochemical behavior towards hydrogen peroxide. Hb oxidation by H₂O₂ was monitored simultaneously by two different techniques: Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Magnetoelastic Resonance (MR). The Metglas/ZnO/Hb system was simultaneously used a...

Fast strain wave induced magnetization changes in long cobalt bars: Domain motion versus coherent rotation" (2015). A high frequency (88 MHz) traveling strain wave on a piezoelectric substrate is shown to change the magnetization direction in 40 lm wide Co bars with an aspect ratio of 10 3. The rapidly alternating strain wave rotates the magnetization away from the long axis into the short axis...

Linearized equations and boundary conditions of a magnetoelastic ferromagnetic body are obtained with the nonlinear law of magnetization. Magnetoelastic interactions in a multidomain ferromagnetic materials are considered for magneto soft materials, i.e. the case when the magnetic field intensity vector and magnetization vector are parallel. As a special case, the following two problems are con...
