As one of the pioneers of "Piezoelectric Actuators", I have
contributed to the commercialization of various products for over
45 years, including million-selling devices, micro-ultrasonic
motors for smart-phone camera modules by Samsung Electromechanics,
piezoelectric transformers for backlight inverters by Apple
laptops, multilayer PZT actuators for diesel injection valves by
Denso Corporation, and piezoelectric energy harvesting modules for
Programable Air-Burst Munition by the US Army. During the
development period for "piezoelectric actuators and transformers,"
I found that the bottleneck for device miniaturization was heat
generation under a high-power drive condition. Thus, in parallel to
the piezo-actuator developments, I have been developing various
high-power density piezo-ceramic materials with the loss mechanism
clarification. Hence, I considered that it was time to organize a
textbook based on the previous studies, including my materials
development philosophy to stimulate younger generations to reach to
the energy density of up to 100 W/cm3 in the future. Increasing
efficiency and saving energy and space (compactness) are one of the
important approaches in this 21st-century "sustainable society."
High-Power Piezoelectrics and Loss Mechanisims introduces the
theoretical background of piezoelectrics, electromechanical
phenomenology, loss mechanisms, practical materials, device
designs, drive and characterization techniques, and typical
applications, and looks forward to the future perspectives in this
field. This book is NOT an overall review of this area, but it
focuses on important and basic ideas under my development
philosophy to understand how to design and develop high-power
piezoelectric materials and devices. This textbook is designed for
self-learning by the reader aided by the availability of: * Chapter
Essentials - Summary for quick memory recovery * Check Points -
Answers are provided in the Appendix * Example Problems - To
enhance the reader's understanding with full, detailed solutions *
Chapter Problems - For the final exam or further consideration
