Abstract
A small DC magnetic field can induce an enormous response in the impedance of a soft magnetic conductor in various forms of wire, ribbon, and thin film. Also known as the giant magnetoimpedance (GMI) effect, this phenomenon forms the basis for the development of high-performance magnetic biosensors with magnetic field sensitivity down to the picoTesla regime at room temperature. Over the past decade, some state-of-the-art prototypes have become available for trial tests due to continuous efforts to improve the sensitivity of GMI biosensors for the ultrasensitive detection of biological entities and biomagnetic field detection of human activities through the use of magnetic nanoparticles as biomarkers. In this review, we highlight recent advances in the development of GMI biosensors and review medical devices for applications in biomedical diagnostics and healthcare monitoring, including real-time monitoring of respiratory motion in COVID-19 patients at various stages. We also discuss exciting research opportunities and existing challenges that will stimulate further study into ultrasensitive magnetic biosensors and healthcare monitors based on the GMI effect.

Abstract
Imaging of magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) is of great interest in the medical sciences. By using resonant magnetoelectric sensors, higher harmonic excitations of MNPs can be measured and mapped in space. The proper reconstruction of particle distribution via solving the inverse problem is paramount for any imaging technique. For this, the forward model needs to be modeled accurately. However, depending on the state of the magnetoelectric sensors, the projection axis for the magnetic field may vary and may not be known accurately beforehand. As a result, the projection axis used in the model may be inaccurate, which can result in inaccurate reconstructions and artifact formation. Here, we show an approach for mapping MNPs that includes sources of uncertainty to both select the correct particle distribution and the correct model simultaneously.

Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are a hot topic in the field of medical life sciences, as they are highly relevant in diagnostic applications. In this regard, a large variety of novel imaging methods for MNP in biological systems have been invented. In this proof-of-concept study, a new and novel technique is explored, called Magnetic Particle Mapping (MPM), using resonant magnetoelectric (ME) sensors for the detection of MNPs that could prove to be a cheap and efficient way to localize the magnetic nanoparticles. The simple and straightforward setup and measurement procedure includes the detection of higher harmonic excitations of MNP ensembles. We show the feasibility of this approach by building a measurement setup particularly suited to exploit the inherent sensor properties. We measure the magnetic response from 2D MNP distributions and reconstruct the distribution by solving the inverse problem. Furthermore, biological samples with magnetically labeled cells were measured and reconstruction of the distribution was compared with light microscope images. Measurement results suggest that the approach presented here is promising for MNP localization.

Abstract
A high-Q magnetoelectric (ME) gyrator consisting of a trilayer laminate of nickel-iron-based constant elasticity alloy (Ni-Fe-Cr) and lead zirconate titanate with a coil wound around it has been developed and systematically characterized. Highly efficient magneto-mechanical-electric conversion can be achieved by means of the combination contributions of high quality factors from individuals, and much energy can be transferred through the gyration device. Under an electromechanical resonance frequency of 54.04 kHz, experimental results show that maximum efficiency reaches as high as 88.5% under an extremely low input density of 3.31 µW/cm3 with an optimum load resistance of 9.6 kΩ and a magnetic bias of 66 Oe. Such a highly efficient ME gyrator with a high Q factor can be beneficial or degrade the design goals that are likely to be achievable for practical applications in compact power transfer electronic devices.
