Piezoelectric response nonlinearity is approached using the Preisach description of hysteretic systems as collection of distributed bistable units. The Preisach model and its recent physical interpretation in terms of moving domain wall in a stochastically ...
Thin film piezoelectric materials offer a number of advantages in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), due to the large motions that can be generated, often with low hysteresis, the high available energy densities, as well as high sensitivity sensors wit ...
The present study aims at a better understanding of the high piezoelectric properties encountered in lead-based ferroelectrics by focusing on the extrinsic contributions to the response. The main characteristics of these materials are the highly nonlinear ...
PbTiO3 thin films were prepared from alkoxide solution precursors and crystallized onto Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates. Microscopy observations revealed that the complexity of the domain walls structure decreased with the grain size. Dielectric, electrostricti ...
Thickness mode resonances in commercial piezoelectric ceramics have been characterised as a function of frequency by two methods. The first is based on a fit on the electrical impedance for the fundamental and the overtones. This method has been applied to ...
The effective piezoelectric coefficient e(31) has been measured on sol-gel processed Pb(ZrxTi1-x)O-3 thin films with Zr concentrations ranging from 45 to 60%. The largest value was observed at 45% Zr, although dielectric constant and effective d(33) peak a ...
Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3 (PZT) and Pb(Zr, Ti, Nb)O-3 (PNZT) thin films have been deposited on platinized silicon substrates by sputtering followed by a postannealing treatment. The Nb concentration in the films varied between 1 and 7 at. % with increments of 1 at. %. ...
The effective piezoelectric transverse coefficient e(31,f) was measured on various lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) and aluminum nitride thin films. The measurement set-up is based on the collection of the electric charges created by the forced deflection of ...
The self-polarization effect is investigated in Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 (PZT) thin films deposited by sol-gel and magnetron sputtering techniques. The effective piezoelectric coefficient of as-grown films, which is proportional to their initial polarization (self-pol ...
It is shown that at weak alternating stress the relationship between the piezoelectrically induced charge and applied stress in ferroelectric ceramics has the same form as the Rayleigh law for magnetization versus magnetic field in ferromagnetic materials. ...
