Abstract

Abstract: With the construction of the energy internet, the demand for various sensing devices is increasing. Most of sensing devices need power source which limits their application in the wide spread distributed nodes of sensor network. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop passive sensing devices which is more intelligent and convenient. This paper studies the magnetoelectric effect of layered magnetoelectric composites. Firstly, the physical process is analyzed by using the finite element method. Secondly, magnetoelectric response of the eddy current in the Cu-PZT layered composite material is investigated. Finally, the voltage variations of circular and rectangular samples are compared. It can be seen from the results that under the action of the eddy current, there is a u-shaped curve relationship between the induced voltage and the magnetic field. The energy conversion of metal-piezoelectric composite material without power source provides an effective path for developing passive magnetic sensor.
