Popis: | In this work, a lead-free magnetoelectric composite with a NiMnIn (180 nm)/AlN (180 nm)/NiMnIn (50 nm)/AlN (180 nm)/NiMnIn (180 nm) structure has been fabricated using magnetron sputtering. The AlN structure with an encapsulated NiMnIn layer exhibits higher dielectric permittivity, piezoelectric response and magnetodielectric response as compared to a pure AlN (∼ 360 nm) structure. The dielectric constant of the encapsulated structure was found to be about 300% (22.3) greater as compared to that of the pure AlN (∼ 7.24) structure. The piezoelectric coefficient of the multilayered structure was found to be about 7.49. A high value (∼ 1268 ppm) of the magnetostriction coefficient was obtained for the ferromagnetic NiMnIn layer using the cantilever deflection method. The magnetic field sensing characteristics of the fabricated encapsulated structure is studied in terms of magnetodielectric effect as large as 8.5%. The proposed multilayered structures with enhanced dielectric constant and good magnetodielectric characteristics are useful for future magnetic field sensing and microelectromechanical systems device applications. |
