A two-core transducer assembly using a Fe73.5Nb3Cu1Si13.5B9 ribbon to detect a change of magnetic field is proposed and tested for displacement (linear and angular) and current sensor. Two identical inductors, with the ribbon as core, are a part of two series resonance network, and are in high impedance state when excited by a small a.c field of 1MHz in absence of d.c biasing field (Hdc). When the magnetic state of one inductor is altered by biasing field, produced by a bar magnet or current carrying coil, an ac signal proportional to Hdc is generated by transducer. The results for the sensitivity and linearity with displacement (linear and angular) of a magnet and with field from the current carrying coil are presented for two particular configurations of the transducer. High sensitivities of voltage response as much as 12micro-volt/micro-meter and 3mV/degree have been obtained for the transducer as a linear and angular displacement sensor respectively in the transverse configuration of exciting a.c and biasing d.c fields.

The magneto-impedance (MI) in amorphous ribbon of nominal composition Fe73.5Nb3Cu1Si13.5B9 has been measured at 1MHz and at room temperature for different configurations of exciting a.c and biasing d.c. fields. A large drop in both resistance and reactance is observed as a function of d.c magnetic field. When the d.c and a.c fields are parallel but normal to the axis of ribbon, smaller magnetic field is needed to reduce the impedance to its small saturated value compared to the situation when fields are along the axis of ribbon. Larger d.c. field is required to lower the impedance when the d.c field acts perpendicular to the plane of the ribbon. Such anisotropy in magneto-impedance is related to the anisotropic response of the magnetization of ribbon. The large change of impedance is attributed to large variation of a.c permeability on the direction and magnitude of the dc biasing field.
The resistive and reactive parts of the magneto-impedance of sintered ferromagnetic samples of La0.7Sr0.3-xAgxMnO3 (x = 0.05, 0.25) have been measured at room temperature (<Tc) over frequency interval 1KHz to 15MHz and in presence of magnetic field up to 4KOe. The field dependence of relative change in resistance is small in KHz region but increases strongly for higher frequency of excitation. The maximum value of relative change in resistance at H =4KOe was found to be around 70% at 15MHz frequency.On the contrary the corresponding change in reactance has less frequency sensitivity and the maximum occurs at 1MHz frequency. The magneto-impedance is negative for all frequencies. The normalized magneto-impedance as defined by [Z(H)-Z(0)]/[Z(0)-Z(4K)] when plotted against scaled field H/H1/2 is found to be frequency independent ; H1/2 is the field where normalized magneto-impedance is reduced to half its maximum. A phenomenological formula for magneto-impedance Z (H) in ferromagnetic material is proposed based on Pade approximant. The formula for Z (H) predicts the scaled behavior of normalized magneto-impedance.

The resistive and reactive components of magneto-impedance (MI) for Finemet/Copper/Finemet sandwiched structures based on stress-annealed nanocrystalline Fe75Si15B6Cu1Nb3 ribbons as functions of different fields (longitudinal and perpendicular) and frequencies have been measured and analyzed. Maximum magneto-resistance and magneto-inductance ratios of 700% and 450% have been obtained in 30-600 kHz frequency range respectively. These large magneto-resistance and magneto-inductive ratios are a direct consequence of the large effective relative permeability due to the closed magnetic flux path in the trilayer structure. The influence of perpendicular bias fields (Hper) in the Longitudinal Magneto-impedance (LMI) configuration greatly improves the MI ratios and sensitivities. The maximum MI ratio for the resistive part increases to as large as 2500% for Hper ~ 1 Oe. The sensitivity of the magneto-resistance increases from 48%/Oe to 288%/Oe at 600 kHz frequency with the application of Hper ~ 30 Oe. Such high increase in MI ratios and sensitivities with perpendicular bias fields are due to the formation the favourable (transverse) domain structures.
Giant magneto-Seebeck (GMS) effect was observed in Co/Cu/Co and NiFe/Cu/Co spin valves. Their Seebeck coefficients in parallel state was larger than that in antiparallel state, and GMS ratio defined as (SAP-SP)/SP could reach -9% in our case. The GMS originated not only from trivial giant magnetoresistance but also from spin current generated due to spin polarized thermoelectric conductivity in ferromagnetic materials and subsequent modulation of the spin current by spin configurations in spin valves. Simple Mott two-channel model reproduced a -11% GMS for the Co/Cu/Co spin valves, qualitatively consistent with our observations. The GMS effect could be applied simultaneously sensing temperature gradient and magnetic field and also be possibly applied to determine spin polarization of thermoelectric conductivity and Seebeck coefficient in ferromagnetic thin films.
Ferromagnetic Ni2MnGa-based alloys play an important role in technological fields, such as smart actuators, magnetic refrigeration and robotics. The possibility of obtaining large non-contact deformation induced by an external perturbation is one of its key strengths for applications. However, the search for materials with low cost, practical fabrication procedures and large signal output under small perturbing fields still poses challenges. In the present study we demonstrate that by judicial choice of substitution on the Mn site, an abrupt magnetostructural transition from a paramagnetic austenite phase to a ferromagnetic martensite one can be tuned to close to room temperature achieving large and reproducible strains. The required magnetic field to induce the strain varies from small values, as low as 0.25 T for 297.4 K and 1.6% of strain, to 8 T for 305 K and 2.6% of strain. Our findings point to encouraging possibilities for application of shape memory alloys in relatively inexpensive, scalable polycrystalline materials.
