Abstract
The giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) has been measured in as-quenched (Co0.94Fe0.06)72.5Si12.5B 15 amorphous wire as a function of DC-biased current, Ib, along sample axis and measuring frequency f. The GMI profile during half a cycle of magnetization for Ib = 0 shows a typical behavior of GMI, that is, single peak for f = 0.1 MHz and symmetric two peaks (or f ≤ 0.5 MHz. Asymmetric GMI profile appears for Ib ≥ 0.85mA in the frequency range between 0.1 and 10 MHz, due to the suppression of wall motion by the induced circular field. The field sensitivity amounted to 170%/Oe for 0.1 MHz with Ib = 3.4mA and 150%/Oe for f ≥ 0.5 MHz with 12.7 mA.
