A passive current sensor,consisting of SmFe_(2)/PZT/SmFe_(2)self-biased magnetoelectric(ME)composite and Fe_(73.5)Cu_(1)Nb_(3)Si_(13.5)B_(9)nanocrystalline flux concentrator for weak current detection at power-line frequency,was fabricated and characterized.Giant magnetostrictive material of SmFe_(2)plate with large anisotropic constant provides a huge internal anisotropic field to bias the ME transducer in closed magnetic loop.Consequently,the additional magnetomotive force induced by the internal field and the corresponding increased effective permeabil-ity contribute to the improvement of the sensitivity.Experimental results demonstrate that the presented sensor has a higher sensitivity of 152 mV·A^(-1)at 50 Hz with a slight nonlinearity of~0.01%full scale(FS)and matches well with the predicted value.This presented current-sensing device exhibits approximately 2.3 times higher sensitivity than that of conventional ME composite with[Pb(Zr_(0.48),Ti_(0.52)O_(3)](PZT)and Terfenol-D plates serving as a key sensitive component.In addition,time stabilities of the presented sensor were evaluated for a long period of 72 h and analyzed through mathematical statistics method,and favorable stabilities with an uncertainty of 0.5μV are obtained in continuous 1 h testing.These results provide a significant advancement toward promising application of the tri-layer self-biased ME laminate for power-line elec-tric cords monitoring.
We comparatively investigate the influence of various high-permeability alloys on the hysteretic and remanent res- onant magnetoelectric （ME） response in a composite of magnetostrictive nickel （Ni） and piezoelectric Pb（Zrl_x, Tix）O3 （PZT）. In order to implement this comparative research, Co-based amorphous alloy （CoSiB）, Fe-based nanocrystalline alloy （FeCuNbSiB） and Fe-based amorphous alloy （FeSiB） are used according to different magnetostriction （2s） and saturation magnetization （μtoMs） characteristics. The bending and longitudinal resonant ME voltage coefficients （αME,b and αME,1） are observed comparatively for CoSiB/Ni/PZT, FeCuNbSiB/Ni/PZT, and FeSiB/Ni/PZT composites. The experimental data indicate that the FeSiB/Ni/PZT composite has the largest remanent self-biased aME,b and aME,1 due to the largest magnetic grading of λs and μ0Ms in the FeSiB/Ni layer. When the number of FeSiB foils is four, the maximum remanent aME,b and aME,I at zero bias magnetic field are 57.8 V/cm·Oe and 107.6 V/cm·Oe, respectively. It is recommended that the high-permeability alloy is supposed to have larger λs and μ0Ms for obtaining a larger remanent self-biased ME responses in ME composite with high-permeability alloy.
