Abstract
Initial studies on a novel thick-film magnetostrictive material are presented. The screen printable thick-film is based on the giant magnetostrictive material Terfenol-D. The development of the paste and of a suitable measurement system is described. Initial values for the magnetostriction of the thick-film are reported and compared with those of other composite magnetostrictive materials
