Piezoelectric materials produce electric charges on their surfaces
as a consequence of applying mechanical stress. They are used in
the fabrication of a growing range of devices such as transducers
(used, for example, in ultrasound scanning), actuators (deployed in
such areas as vibration suppression in optical and microelectronic
engineering), pressure sensor devices (such as gyroscopes) and
increasingly as a way of producing energy. Their versatility has
led to a wealth of research to broaden the range of piezoelectric
materials and their potential uses. Advanced piezoelectric
materials: science and technology provides a comprehensive review
of these new materials, their properties, methods of manufacture
and applications. After an introductory overview of the development
of piezoelectric materials, Part one reviews the various types of
piezoelectric material, ranging from lead zirconate titanate (PZT)
piezo-ceramics, relaxor ferroelectric ceramics, lead-free
piezo-ceramics, quartz-based piezoelectric materials, the use of
lithium niobate and lithium in piezoelectrics, single crystal
piezoelectric materials, electroactive polymers (EAP) and
piezoelectric composite materials. Part two discusses how to design
and fabricate piezo-materials with chapters on piezo-ceramics,
single crystal preparation techniques, thin film technologies,
aerosol techniques and manufacturing technologies for piezoelectric
transducers. The final part of the book looks at applications such
as high-power piezoelectric materials and actuators as well as the
performance of piezoelectric materials under stress. With its
distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors
Advanced piezoelectric materials: science and technology is a
standard reference for all those researching piezoelectric
materials and using them to develop new devices in such areas as
microelectronics, optical, sound, structural and biomedical
engineering.
