Abstract
The magnetoelectric effect can be observed in the composites of magnetostrictive and piezoelectric phases by the mechanical transfer from one to the other. The large magnetoelectric effect exists in the multiferritic composites with Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 rod arrays embedded in a ferromagnetic medium of (Tb, Dy) Fe2/epoxy. The large magnetoelectric effect and its origin in this structure were discussed on the basis of finite element method. The numberical results were close to those of the experiment. The distributions of strain, stress and electric polarization and their relation were analyzed. The authors gave a way to improve the magentoelectric effect based on the distribution of the electric polarization.
