摘要
The novel sandwich composites were prepared by sandwiching a polyvinylidene fluoride/Tb- Dy-Fe alloy composite （PVDF/Terfenol-D） between polyvinylidene fluoride/lead zirconate titanate composites （PVDF/PZT）. The maximum magnetoelectric effect voltage coefficient, （dE/dn）33max, of the sandwich composites is higher than that of three-phase composites at their own optimal loading level of Terfenol-D. This is attributed to less interface relaxations of strain and better polarization of the sandwich composites. When the volume fraction of Terfenol-D is higher than 0.10, no coupling interaction for three-phase composites could be observed, but （dE/dn）33max of sandwiched composites still reached 20 mV/（cm.Oe）. At high magnetic field intensity, the magnetoelectric effect voltage coefficient, （dE/dn）33, of sandwich composites is higher than that of three-phase composites; at low magnetic field intensity, （dE/dn）33 of sandwich composites is lower than that of three-phase composites. At their resonance frequency, the （dE/dn）33max of the sandwich composites and the three phase composites are 150 mV/（cm.Oe） and 42 mV/（cmoOe）, respectively. This significant increase of （dE/ dn）33max at resonance frequency confirms the improvement of maximum magnetoelectric effect coefficient via sandwich-structured composites.
