Abstract

In this chapter, we discuss the theoretical modeling of low-frequency ME effect in layered and bulk composites based on magnetostrictive and piezoelectric materials. Our analysis rests on the effective-medium approach and exact calculation based on elastostatic, electrostatic and magnetostatic equations. The expressions for effective parameters including ME susceptibilities and ME voltage coefficients as functions of material parameters and volume fractions of components are obtained. Longitudinal, transverse and in-plane field orientations are considered. The use of the offered model has allowed to estimate the ME effect in ferrite cobalt–barium titanate, ferrite cobalt–PZT, ferrite nickel–PZT, lanthanum-strontium manganite–PZT composites adequately.
