Giant uniaxial stress-permeability effect on electrical parameters of heterotypic MnZn ferrite devices and electromagnetic effect

The effects of uniaxial stress on permeability and electrical parameters of heterotypic manganite zinc (MnZn) ferrite devices have been investigated. Giant stress-permeability, stress-capacitance and stress-impedance that are independent of skin effects have been simultaneously observed to exist in a wide range of frequency at room temperature. All the uniaxial stress effects enhance with increasing the permeability of the ferrite. The stress-inductance is same as the stress-impedance and reverse to the stress-capacitance in phase. The stress effects under uniaxial pulling force are analogical with those under uniaxial pressing force. A composite of electrostrain/stress-permeability has been fabricated. Its electromagnetic effects have been observed to be homologous with the stress effects and can also exist in wide range of frequency but display some maximums. Analysis shows that both stress and electromagnetic effects originate from the variation of the magnetic domain structure in the ferrites caused by applied mechanical stress.
