The ME voltage (V-ME) was measured for various amplitudes of H-ac of up to 9 Oe over the frequency (f) range 0.1<f<40 kHz. Compared to the linear ME behavior, an anomalous response to f and H-ac was observed, which is believed to be associated with the Eddy-current loss in the Metglas layers. A frequency multiplication effect was also observed for V-ME, which was understood by Fourier analysis of the nonlinearity in the magnetostriction. (C) 2013 American Institute of Physics.
