11. Summary of the new findings of the thesis:

Successful fabrication of magnetoelectric materials structures in Terfecohan/PZT thin films by using sputtering and laminated composites Metglas/PZT by bonding method.

Thin film Terfecohan has been annealing at 3500C appeared nanocrystal structure and enhanced magnetic, magnetostrictive, magnetoelectric properties for magnetic sensor application.

Obtained results in magnetic, magnetostriction and magnetoelectric showed that the sandwich structure in dimension of 15x1 mm2 offers the highest magnetoelectric effect at low magnetic field. This is the optimum configuration for low magnetic sensor application.

Successful modelling and simulation in shear lag effect, demagnetization and vibration effect applied for resonant frequencies and magnetoelectric effect tendencies in laminated composites.

Successful manufacturing and packaging a sensor prototype for geomagnetic measurement. A magnetic field sensing of a high sensitivity of 653,215 mV/Oe and high resolution of 3.10-4 Oe as well as an angular sensing with an accuracy of 10-1 degree have been achieved.

Successful manufacturing sensors prototype (1D, 2D and 3D). These sensors can determine the magnitude and direction of geomagnetic in space with high sensitivity and resolution.

12. Practical applicability:

Geomagnetic sensors (1D, 2D and 3D) combine with the display device as the new generation compass and used in automated control systems.

13. Further research directions:

Development of sensors for application to current measurement devices, heart rate measurement devices, magnetic nanoparticle detection devices and biosensors.
