It is found that elastic modulus and thickness of the elastic layer have great influences on magnetoelectric(ME) voltage coefficient(α(ME)) and working range of frequency in PVDF-based MET device. The decrease of the modulus and thickness can help increase the α ME. However,it can also reduce the working range in the low frequency. By optimizing the parameters, the giant α(ME) of 320 V/cm·Oe(1 Oe = 79.5775 A·m^-1 at low frequency(1 Hz) can be obtained. The present results may help design PVDF-based MET low-frequency magnetic sensor with improved magnetic sensitivity in a relative large frequency range.展开更多
