Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.9/PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 Micro-Bridge on SiNx Thin Film for Low Frequency Magnetic Sensing Applications

초록

A micro-fabricated bridge sensor for determining minute magnetic field variation is proposed. A micro-bridge with 100 x 400 mu m(2) dimensions (width x length) comprises a multi-layered structure of Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.9/PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 on a SiNx supporting layer. We observed the limit of detection under small DC magnetic field as 1 x 10(-11) T which was converted electrically to 77 mu V with a 5 mu V noise floor via elastic coupling between magnetostrictive and piezoelectric thin film. The magnetoelectric (ME) voltage was linearly proportional to small magnetic field variance, and the experimental ME coefficient was measured as 9.9 V/(cm.Oe).
