The suppression of the magnetoelectric effect hysteresis in a composite planar structure containing mechanically coupled layers of piezoelectric langatate and magnetostrictive amorphous alloy Metglas was observed and investigated. As the pumping magnetic field with frequency ~84 kHz was increased from 0.6 Oe up to 20 Oe, the coercive fields for the 1st and 3rd voltage harmonics generated by the structure were decreased from ~0.7 Oe up to zero. The suppression of the magnetoelectric hysteresis will allow increasing of absolute accuracy of the magnetoelectric magnetic field sensors by ~2 orders of magnitude.
