Systematic Design of Piezoelectric Modal Sensors/actuators

Piezoelectricity is the ability of some materials (notably crystals and certain ceramics) to generate an electric potential in response to applied mechanical stress and vice versa. Whenever this kind of materials produce an electric signal proportional to their deformation, it is said that they work as sensors, and conversely, when they convert electrical energy into mechanical one, as actuator...

Advances in Lead-Free Piezoelectric Materials for Sensors and Actuators

Piezoelectrics have widespread use in today's sensor and actuator technologies. However, most commercially available piezoelectric materials, e.g., Pb [Zr(x)Ti(1-x)] O(3) (PZT), are comprised of more than 60 weight percent lead (Pb). Due to its harmful effects, there is a strong impetus to identify new lead-free replacement materials with comparable properties to those of PZT. This review highl...

Green paper-based piezoelectric material for sensors and actuators

In this work, the fabrication of Rochelle salt based piezoelectric structures is illustrated. Structures composed of paper and Rochelle salt are easily manufactured using simple processes. Both manufacturing and the material itself are environmental friendly. Additionally Rochelle salt is biocompatible. In the paradigm of a cleaner piezoelectric technology, the fabrication of active sensing or ...

Metal piezoelectric semiconductor field effect transistors for piezoelectric strain sensors

In this letter, we examine the potential of a functional device that can have good transistor and stress sensor properties. The device examined is based on the use of a thin oxide with high piezoelectric coefficients under the gate region. Channel charge and current are controlled by gate voltage or by stress. We examine the performance of two classes of heterostructures that are important semi...

Development of piezoelectric bending actuators with embedded piezoelectric sensors for micromechanical flapping mechanisms

This paper presents the fabrication and the testing of piezoelectric unimorph actuators with embedded piezoelectric sensors which are meant to be used for the actuation of the Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI). First the fabrication process of a piezoelectric bending actuator comprising a standard unimorph and a rigid extension is described together with the advantages of adding such an exten...
