Abstract

The first experimental observation of the acoustically induced d.c. magnetization (acousto-magnetic effect (AME)) is reported for intense SAW in a layered structure LiNbO₃-FeMoP. An amorphous magnetostrictive film exhibited a strong magnetoacoustic (MA) nonlinear behavior under the MA-resonance conditions at extremely low magnetic field &cong;30 Oe for 30-MHz MASAW. Convolution efficiency was measured to be as high as -48 dBm. Transversal AME observed in the experiment was found to be even on MASAW propagation direction and odd in respect to a bias magnetic field orientation. A feasibility of AME applications for a high-sensitive scanning magnetic field sensor was demonstrated
