We have found that laminate composites consisting of longitudinally magnetized magnetostrictive Terfenol-D and longitudinally poled piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 layers have dramatically enhanced magnetoelectric effects when driven near resonance. The maximum induced magnetoelectric voltage at resonance was similar to10 Vp/Oe, which is similar to10(2) times higher than previous reports at subresonant frequencies.
