Abstract
Initial studies on a novel thick-film magnetostrictive material are present ed. The screen printable thick-film is based on the giant magnetostrictive material Terfenol-D. The development of the paste and of a suitable measure ment system is described. Initial values for the magnetostriction of the th ick-film are reported and compared with those of other composite magnetostr ictive materials.
