Nonlinear resonant magnetoelectric interactions and efficient frequency doubling in a ferromagnetic-ferroelectric layered structure

TLDR
In this paper, a model for non-linear magnetoelectric coupling was discussed for RF frequency doublers, and it was shown that NLME is strong in the absence of DC magnetic bias, when the frequency of h is tuned to half the frequency for bending oscillations, and when a PZT bimorph is used.
Abstract
Mechanical strain mediated non-linear magnetoelectric (NLME) coupling is studied in layered composites of ferromagnetic FeBSiC and piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) bimorph. The NLME manifests as frequency doubling in the voltage response of the sample to an applied ac magnetic field. It is shown that NLME is strong (i) in the absence of DC magnetic bias, (ii) when the frequency of h is tuned to half the frequency for bending oscillations, and (iii) a PZT bimorph (instead of a single layer of PZT) is used. A model is discussed for the non-linear magnetoelectric coupling that is of interest for RF frequency doublers.
