The effect of $MnO_2$ addition in $0.05Pb(Sn_{0.5}Sb_{0.5})O_3-0.8PbZrO_3-0.15PbTiO_3$(0.05PSS-0.8PZ-0.15PT) ceramics on crystal structure and electrical properties were studied. The sintering temperature and time were $1230^{\circ}C{\sim}1270^{\circ}C$ and 2hr, respectively. Then crystal structure, dielectric and pyroelectric properties were investigated. All the poled specimens showed the lower dielectric constant and $tan{\delta}$ than the unpoled specimens. Dielectric constant at 1kHz of the 0.05PSS-0.8PZ-0.15PT(MnO2 0.3wt%) system specimen sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 2hr were 270 and showed the lowest $tan{\delta}$ of 0.2% after poling of $2kV_{DC}/mm$ at $150^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. Pyroelectric coefficient was maximum value of $50nC/cm^2K$ and Curie temperature was $224^{\circ}C$.

A great deal of research has been done in the field of characterization for piezoelectric thin films after the first report on the measurement for the piezoelectric coefficient of thin films in 1990. The main idea of this research is to provide a distinctive solution for the measurement and standardization of both the longitudinal and the transverse piezoelectric d-coefficients, d33 and d31, of ferroelectric thin films. In general, to get these two coefficients of thin films, two different measuring systems are required. Here, we propose the improved method for the evaluation of these two coefficients with single equipment and with the relatively convenient procedure. The two-step loading process of applying the both positive and the negative pressure has been introduced to acquire the piezoelectric coefficients. These results have been calibrated for both the longitudinal and 4he transverse piezoelectric d-coefficients, d33 and 431, of thin films by comparison with the virtual standard created from FEM. In this experiments, we have obtained d33 of 331pC/N and 031 of -92.2pC/N for the PZT thin films.

Solid solution ceramics having various ratios between xPb( $Y_{1}$2/T $a_{1}$2/) $O_3$ and Pb(Z $r_{0.52}$ $Ti_{0.48}$) $O_3$were synthesized by a conventional solid state reaction for well sintered specimens, dielectric and piezoelectric prperties were studied as a function of composition. The dielectric constant of PYT-PZT ceramics of 4 mol% PYT was 1,424 at room temperature. The maximum value of electromechanical couping facotr $k_{p}$ of 51% $k_{t}$ of 30% were obtained at the composition of 4 mol% PYT, howerver mechanical quality factor( $Q_{m}$) had a minimum value of 69 at 4 mol% PYT. Also the maximum value of piezoelectric constant of $D_{33}$(310[pC/N]) and $d_{31}$(-131[pC/N]) were obtained at the composition of 4 mol% PYT content.ntent.t.t.t.

압전 액츄에이터는 다른 종류의 액츄에이터와 비교할 때 높은 강성, 빠른 응답성의 우수한 특성을 가지고 있다. 벤더형 액츄에이터는 높은 변위의 장점을 가지나 높은 전기장과 기계적 부하인가시에는 내부 응력이 증가하므로서 신뢰성이 감소한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위하여 여러 방법으로 내부 응력을 줄이려는 시도가 있으며 그중 하나는 경사기능 소재나 경사기능 구조를 가지는 액츄에이터의 개발이다. 본 연구에서는 경사기능 특성을 모사한 액츄에이터 구조를 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. 두 가지의 압전상수 d31= - 220 pC/N, d31 =- 100 pC/N를 가지는 세라믹층을 적층하여 벤더형 액츄에이터의 특성을 관찰하였다. 그 결과 두 종류의 세라믹층으로 적층한 액츄에이터가 한가지 특성의 세라믹으로 제작한 액츄에이터 보다 전압인가시 20%이상의 우수한 변위 특성을 나타내었다. 이러한 변화는 내부 응력의 감소에 기인한 것으로 예상된다.

In this paper, the dielectric and pizoelectric properties of 0.05Pb(M $n_{04}$ $W_{0.2}$N $b_{0.4}$) $O_3$-0.95(PbZ $r_{x}$ $Ti_{1-x}$ ) $O_3$+yN $b_2$ $O_{5}$ , are investigated as a function of the mole ratio of Zr and the amount of N $b_2$ $O_{5}$ . Also, the phase is analyzed by XRD. When the mole ratio of Zr is 0.51, the electromechanical coupling coefficient( $k_{p}$ ), relative dielectric constant ($\varepsilon$$^{T}$ $_{33}$ /$\varepsilon$$_{0}$ ), piezoelectric stain constrain ( $d_{33}$ and dielectric loss tangent show maximum, while the mechanical quality factor shows minimum value ; $k_{p}$ =56.5%, $d_{33}$ =258pC/N, $\varepsilon$$^{T}$ $_{33}$ /$\varepsilon$$_{0}$ =1170, $Q_{m}$ =1150, tan$\delta$=0.51%. At that composition, MPB which rhombohedral and tetragonal phase coexist in this ternary system is shown by the results of XRD analysis. Also, when the amount of N $b_2$ $O_{5}$ is 0.3wt%, the mechanical quality factor is increased to about 2000. The phase transition temperature of the ternary piezoelectric ceramic system showed about 35$0^{\circ}C$.TEX>.>.>.

Spring supported piezoelectric cantilever structures (SPCS) were fabricated for vibration-based energy harvester application. We selected four elastic springs (A, B, C, and D type) as cantilever's supporter, each elastic spring has a different spring constant (S). The C type of SPCS ($S_C$: 4,649 N/m) showed a extremely low resonance frequency of 81 Hz along with the highest power output of 38.5 mW while the A type of SPCS ($S_A$: 40,629 N/m) didn't show a resonance frequency while. Therefore, it is considered that the lower spring constant lead to a lower resonance frequency of the SPCS. In addition, a tip mass (18 g) at one end of the SPCS could further reduce the resonance frequency without heavy degradation of power output.

The effects of $Y_2$ $O_3$-substitution on the piezoelectric properties of Pb[(N $i_{1}$3/N $b_{2}$3/)$_{0.15}$(Z $r_{1}$2/ $Ti_{1}$2/)$_{0.85}$] $O_3$ceramics were investigated. It was found that $Y^{3+}$ ions incorporate into Pb-sites of the ceramics, resulting in a increased lattice anisotropy and formation of Pb-vacancies. As a result, an orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition was induced when $\chi$>0.005. At the morphotropic phase boundary of x=0.005, piezoelectric constants( $k_{p}$, $k_{33}$, and $d_{33}$) showed maximum values of 0.53, 0.58, and 350pC/N, respectively. A 30-layer actuator fabricated with the above material showed a maximum strain of 0.12％ under 100V DC bias.

In this paper, in order to develop the low temperature sintering ceramics for multilayer piezoelectric transformer, $Pb[(Mn_{1/3},Nb_{2/3})_{0.07}(Zn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_a(Zr_{0.48}Ti_{0.52})_{1-0.07-a}O_3]$ ceramics were manufactured with the variations of PZN from 2 to 14mol% and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. Sintering temperature was varied from 910 to $1000^{\circ}C$. At 8mol% PZN substituted specimen sintered at $970^{\circ}C$, electromechanical coupling factor(kp), mechanical quality factor(Qm), dielectric constant and peizoelectric constant($d_{33}$) showed the optimal values of 0.536, 1803, 1551 and 328[pC/N), respectively, for multilayer piezoelectric transformer application.

The stress distribution in multilayer piezoelectric ceramic actuators was investigated by Finite element analysis. The y direction stress was concentrated at electrode tip. The y direction maximum stress was decreased to 4.9$\times10^ 7 N/m^2$ with internal electrode gap(a) until 0.4 mm and was not much difference with external electrode thickness(c). The stress distribution with internal layers was almost same and the stress distribution of load condition was higher than that of no load condition The y direction maximum stress increased with the number of layer and saturated at 260 layers. In the case of defective actuator, the stress distribution was disconnected around the defect and larger than that of normal actuator.

High speed performance of ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) based capacitors is reported. La substitution up to 10% was performed to systematically lower the coercive and saturation voltages of epitaxial ferroelectric capacitors grown on Si using a ($Ti_{0.9}$ /$Al_{0.1}$ )N/Pt conducting barrier composite. Ferroelectric capacitors substituted with 10% La show significantly lower coercive voltage compared to capacitors with 0% and 3% La. This is attributed to a systematic decrease in the tetragonality (i.e., c/a ratio) of the ferroelectric phase. Furthermore, the samples doped with 10% La showed dramatically better retention and pulse width dependent polarization compared to the capacitors with 0% and 3% La. These capacitors show promise as storage elements in low power high density memory architectures.
