Abstract
An acoustically driven ferromagnetic resonance (ADFMR) device has a piezoelectric element comprised of piezoelectric material, first and second electrodes arranged in a vertical stack with the piezoelectric element to activate the piezoelectric element to generate an acoustic wave, a radio frequency voltage source electrically connected to the first electrode, a magnet comprised of a magnetostrictive material to receive the acoustic wave, the magnet being in the vertical stack with the first and second electrodes and the piezoelectric element, wherein the acoustic wave resonates at a ferromagnetic resonance of the magnetostrictive material, and a readout circuit to detect a change in the acoustic wave by detecting g one of an output voltage amplitude, a change in impedance or a reflection of the acoustic wave in the magnet to measure an unknown magnetic field in which the ADFMR device resides and as experienced at the magnetostrictive element.
