Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films on insulator-buffered silicon substrates with interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) have the potential to harvest more energy than parallel plate electrode (PPE) structures because the former exploit the longitudinal pie ...
Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3 or PZT) ferroelectric ceramics have been widely used in transducers, actuators, and sensors, since they posses high dielectric and piezoelectric properties with a relatively high temperature of operation. Commerciall ...
Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of K(Ta0.51Nb0.49)O3 [KTN] single crystals along [100], [001] and [011] pseudo-cubic crystallographic orientations are reported and discussed. Temperature dependencies of dielectric permittivity in tetragonal phase o ...
An acoustic wave resonator device comprising a resonant layer that comprises a series of side-by-side areas of first and second dielectric materials. In one embodiment the first dielectric material is a piezoelectric, in particular the first dielectric mat ...
Radio frequency (RF) filters based on bulk acoustic wave resonances in piezoelectric thin films have become indispensable components in mobile communications. The currently used material, AlN, exhibits many excellent properties for this purpose. However, i ...
Ferroelectric ceramic – polymer composites have a unique mix of electrical and mechanical properties. Piezoelectric and pyroelectric activity, a wide range of dielectric constants and high breakdown strength are combined with mechanical flexibility, formab ...
The piezoelectric properties of 31-mode resonators of lead zirconate titanate ceramics under hydrostatic pressure from 0.1 to 325MPa were evaluated by a fitting method, in which mechanical loss was taken into account. Our results based on the fitting metho ...
Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 ceramics with homogenous, anisotropic porosity were manufactured and the influence of the anisotropic porosity on the dielectric and piezoelectric properties was studied. Image analysis allowed the quantification of the preferential orientation ...
The converse piezoelectric response of Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 ceramics is investigated as a function of material composition. The effects of the crystallographic phase and different dopants on piezoelectric nonlinearity are separately examined. For a linear depend ...
The problem of the choice of the order parameter of the Landau expansion of proper ferroelectrics is discussed. The expansion with respect to the (i) electric displacement, (ii) polarization, (iii) ferroelectric contribution to the polarization, (iv) "orde ...
