일반적으로 적층형 압전 액츄에이터의 변위는 액츄에이터의 내부 적층수와 압전정수($d_{33}$)에 비례적으로 증가한다. 그러나 압전현상을 이용한 액츄에이터는 전기적, 기계적 부하에 의한 dipole 거동을 보이기 때문에 domain wall에 의한 압전정수의 비선형 거동을 보인다. 본 논문에서는 PMN-PZ-PT 세라믹스를 이용하여 $2{\times}3{\times}10$ (mm)의 적층형 세라믹 액츄에이터를 제조 후 1kV/mm의 일정한 전계를 인가하고 $0\sim990N$의 기계적 부하 인가하에서 적층형 세라믹 액츄에이터의 비선형 특성을 조사하였다. 압전 액츄에이터의 비선형 거동은 기계적 응력에 의한 유전 및 전왜 특성에 영향주고, 액츄에이터의 변위 특성은 유전 및 전왜 특성의 영향에 크게 의존한다.

Phase evolution, microstructure and the electrical properties such as $k_p$ and $Q_m$ of $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3[PMN]-Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O3[PM'N]-PbZrO_3[PZ]-PbTiO_3[PT]$ quaternary system were investigated within the compositional ranges $0{\leq}y{\leq}0.125$, y+z=0.125, and $0.39{\leq}x{\leq}0.54$ of the formula $Pb_{0.97}Sr_{0.03}[Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_y\;(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_z\;(Zr_{x}Ti_{1-x})_{1-(y+z)}]O_3$. In the case of increasing Mn/(Mg+Mn) ratio for a fixed Zr/Ti ratio of 47.5/52.5, phase relation remained unchanged but the grain size drastically decreased, and the electrical properties changed as following: both $k_P$ and $Q_m$ reached the peak values at $Mn/(Mg+Mn)\cong0.3l7$ and gradually decreased; $\varepsilon33^T$ showed a monotonic decrease; P-E hysteresis loop gradually changed to asymmetrical one, and $E_i$ increased in correspondence. With increasing Zr/Ti ratio for a fixed Mn/(Mg+Mn) ratio of 0.317, on the contrary, the cell parameter $(\alpha^2c)^{1/3}$ gradually increased, and tetragonal-rhombohedral morphotropic phase boundary appeared in the range of $51/49{\leq}Zr/Ti{\leq}54/46$. the meantime, the grain size substantially increased, and the electrical properties changed as following: $k_P$ and $\varepsilon33^T$ reached peak values at Zr/Ti=51/49 and 48/52, respectively, and then gradually decreased; change of $Q_m$ was adverse to $k_P$; both $E_C\;and\;E_i$ considerably decreased while $P_S$ moderately increased. For the system 0.125(PMN+PM'N)-0.875PZT studied, the composition Mn/(Mg+Mn)=0.3l7 and Zr/Ti=51/49 revealed some promising electrical properties for piezoelectric transformer application such as $k_P=0.58,\;Q_m\cong1000$, and $\varepsilon^T_{33}=970$, as well as dense and fine-grained microstructure.
