Abstract :
Modern magnetic materials, particularly in thin film or multilayer form, offer piezomagnetic properties that have the potential to compete with piezoelectric materials in devices. This paper offers an overview of these new materials and their properties, gives a discussion of the potential benefits to be derived from using them, and gives an illustrative example of application in a device
