This paper reports on the microfabrication and characterization of piezoelectric MEMS structures based on epitaxial Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O-3 (PZT) thin films grown on silicon wafers. Membranes and cantilevers are realized using a sequence of microfabrication proc ...
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 ...
In bulk ferroelectric ceramics, extrinsic contributions associated with motion of domain walls and phase boundaries are a significant component of the measured dielectric and piezoelectric response. In thin films, the small grain sizes, substantial residua ...
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 ...
Integration of new functional materials into silicon microsystems is a key factor to enable technology for a wide range of innovative MEMS devices. Piezoelectric materials are of primary interest for integrating sensing and actuation functions in MEMS due ...
The development of wireless and mobile communication in the last decade led to the elaboration of new components based on thin films with continually increasing performance and reduced fabrication cost. A fundamental element for mobile communication is the ...
Pb(Zr, Ti)O-3 (PZT) is an interesting material for bulk acoustic wave resonator applications due to its high electromechanical coupling constant, which would enable fabrication of large bandwidth frequency filters. The major challenge of the PZT solid solu ...
Piezoresistive scanning probe arrays have been developed in view of operation in liquid environments. When the cantilevers are immersed in electrically conductive solutions like for instance physiological buffers, the piezoresistive sensing elements as wel ...
A micro power generator harvesting vibration energy by resonant inertial oscillation of a piezoelectric laminated cantilever with proof mass was designed, fabricated, and characterized. The active part with 2 pm thick PZT on 5 mu m silicon was equipped wit ...
