Download or read book Piezoelectric and Perovskite Materials Synthesis Properties and Applications written by Ian Ferrer and published by Willford Press. This book was released on 2023-09-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Piezoelectric materials or piezoelectrics are the materials that can produce electric energy when mechanical stress is applied on them. There are two broad categories of piezoelectric materials. First category includes piezoelectric materials that exist in nature and the second category comprises man-made or synthetic materials. Quartz, Rochelle salt, topaz, and tourmaline-group minerals are a few examples of naturally-existing piezoelectrics which are anisotropic dielectrics crystals having a non-centrosymmetric crystal lattice. Piezoelectric materials are widely used in electronic devices such as actuators, sensors, accelerators, ultrasonic motors, transducers, filters, resonators, and micro-electromechanical systems. A perovskite is any material that has a crystal structure that follows the basic chemical formula ABX3. Some of the prominent physical properties of these materials are magnetoresistance, superconductivity and ionic conductivity. They find a variety of applications as photovoltaics, lasers, scintillators and light-emitting diodes. This book outlines the synthesis, properties, and applications of piezoelectric and perovskite materials in detail. It aims to serve as a resource guide for students and researchers alike and contribute to the growth of study on these materials.

Chapter 5 presents expanded test and finite element models for cantilever-type and axial-type PEGs with active elements. The studies cover various structural and electric schemes of the PEGs with proof mass, bimorph and cylindrical piezoelectric elements, and excitation loads. Finally, Chapter 6 reviews some results in the last five years, obtained in modelling the vibration of devices from piezoactive materials, including five important effects: piezoelectric, flexoelectric, pyroelectric, piezomagnetic and flexomagnetic.As a diverse addition to the literature, this book is a relevant resource for researchers, engineers, and students seeking to expand their knowledge of cutting-edge developments in this exciting field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science and technology in the area of piezoelectric ceramics are extremely progressing, especially the materials research, measurement technique, theory and applications, and furthermore, demanded to fit social technical requests such as environmental problems. While they had been concentrated on piezoelectric ceramics composed of lead-containing compositions, such as lead zirconate titanate (PZT) and lead titanate, at the beginning because of the high piezoelectricity, recently lead water pollution by soluble PZT of our environment must be considered. Therefore, different new compositions of lead-free ceramics in order to replace PZT are needed. Until now, there have been many studies on lead-free ceramics looking for new morphotropic phase boundaries, ceramic microstructure control to realize high ceramic density, including composites and texture developments, and applications to new evaluation techniques to search for high piezoelectricity. The purpose of this book is focused on the latest reports in piezoelectric materials such as lead-free ceramics, single crystals, and thin films from viewpoints of piezoelectric materials, piezoelectric science, and piezoelectric applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discovered in 1880, piezoelectric materials play a key role in an innovative market of several billions of dollars. Recent advances in applications derive from new materials and their development, as well as to new market requirements. With the exception of quartz, ferroelectric materials are used for they offer both high efficiency and sufficient versatility to meet adequately the multidimensional requirements for application. Consequently, strong emphasis is placed on tailoring materials and technology, whether one deals with single crystals, ceramics or plastic materials. Tailoring requires a basic understanding of both physical principles and technical possibilities and limitations. This report elucidates these developments by a broad spectrum of examples, comprising ultrasound in medicine and defence industry, frequency control, signal processing by SAW-devices, sensors, actuators, including novel valves for modern motor management. It delivers a mutual fertilization of technology push and market pull that should be of interest not only to materials scientists or engineers but also to managers who dedicate themselves to a sound future-oriented R&D policy.

Download or read book Synthesis Structure and Properties of Perovskite Materials for Multiferroism and Piezoelectricity written by Weimin Zhu and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The structure and properties of the perovskite multiferroic (1-x)BiFeO3-xPbTiO3 ceramics prepared by solid state reaction and single crystals grown from high temperature solution have been systematically investigated. The x-ray phase analysis revealed the existence of a new phase with orthorhombic symmetry, together with the rhombohedral and the tetragonal phases, in the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region of this solid solution, which agrees with the domain patterns observed by piezoelectric force microcopy (PFM) on the single crystal. The MPB structure of this system has been updated. The electric study of the (1-x)BiFeO3-xPbTiO3 ceramics by means of impedance spectroscopy suggested that the electric conduction mechanism in this system can be attributed mainly to the hopping of electrons from Fe2+ to Fe3+ through oxygen vacancies. Based on this proposed mechanism, improved dielectric and ferroelectric properties have been realized in BiFe1-xTixO3+x/2-PbTiO3 ceramics via B site aliovalent ionic substitution of Ti4+ for Fe3+ which effectively decreases the oxygen vacancies. The magnetic properties of the (1-x)BiFeO3-xPbTiO3 ceramics were systematically studied. In addition to the antiferromagnetic ordering arising from the superexchange of Fe3+-O-Fe3+ in chemically disordered regions, a magnetic ordering with weak ferromagnetism has been found in the solid solution with composition x around 0.5 at a lower temperature Tc, which is attributed to the long range superexchange through the pathway of Fe3+-O-Ti-O-Fe3+ in the chemically ordered micro-regions with a "super G-type" magnetic structure. Below Tc, the materials show significantly enhanced magnetization from that of bulk BiFeO3. The unusual dependence of Tc on composition is explained based on the competition between the effect of the concentration of chemically ordered micro-regions and that of the coupling distance. The magnetic phase diagram of this system has been established. We have also investigated the (1-x-y)Pb(Yb1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPbZrO3-yPbTiO3 ternary system as new high temperature high performance piezoelectric materials. The room temperature MPB phase diagram of the solid solution has been established by x-ray phase analysis. The excellent piezoelectric performance (d33=1247pC/N), and the high Tc (370 °C) of the ceramics with MPB composition shows the potential for high temperature transduction, actuation, and micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) applications.

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perovskite type piezoelectric and manganese oxide materials have gained a lot of attention in the field of device engineering. Lead zirconium titananium oxide (PbZri.iTiiOa or PZT) is a piezoelectric material widely used as sensors and actuators. Miniaturization of PZTbased devices will not only perfect many existing products, but also opens doors to new applications. Lanthanum manganese oxides Lai-iAiMnOa (A-divalent alkaline earth such as Sr, Ca or Ba) have been intensively studied for their colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) properties that make them applicable in memory cells, magnetic and pressure sensors. In this study, we fabricate PZT and LSMO(LCMO) heterostructures on SrTiOa substrates and investigate their temperature dependency of resistivity and magnetization as a function of the thickness of LSMO(LCMO) layer. The microstructure of the samples is analysed through TEM. In another set of samples, we study the effect of application of an electric field across the PZT layer that acts as an external pressure on the manganite layer. This verifies the correlation of lattice distortion with transport and magnetic properties of the CMR materials.
