A surface acoustic wave (SAW) device is proposed for sensing current by employing the patterned FeGa thin film as the sensitive interface. The layered media structure of FeGa/SiO2/LiNbO3 was established to reveal the working principle of the sensors, and an SAW chip patterned by delay-line and operating at 150 MHz was fabricated photolithographically on 128° YX LiNbO3 substrate. The FeGa thin film with a larger magnetostrictive coefficient was sputtered onto the acoustic propagation path of the SAW chip to build the sensing device. The prepared device was connected into the differential oscillation loop to construct the current sensor. The FeGa thin film produces magnetostrictive strain and so-called ΔE effect at the magnetic field generated by the applied current, which modulates the SAW propagation velocity accordingly. The differential frequency signal was collected to characterize the measurand. Larger sensitivity of 37.9 kHz/A, low hysteresis error of 0.81%, excellent repeatability and stability were achieved in the experiments from the developed sensing device.
