Piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of high-pressure-crystallized PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) film were evaluated, and ultrasonic transducers usable at high temperatures up to 200 degrees C were developed. The film crystallized in the hexagonal phase showed distinctive ferroelectric properties. The poled film exhibited persistent piezoelectric activity in a temperature range extending just below the melting point, and an electromechanical coupling factor k/sub t/ of 0.1-0.2. Ultrasonic transducers were fabricated using this film. These transducers have proved to be applicable for measurements of acoustical properties of materials at high temperatures above 150 degrees .<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269368,"journal":{"name":"[Proceedings] 1990 IEEE 7th International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124830966","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fabrication of such parts, however, has some limitations. The use of AgPd for inner electrodes allows maximum sintering temperatures of only about 1100 degrees C. This can be achieved by a modified ceramic process and by the choice of appropriate material compositions. The internal stresses due to the combination of piezoactive layers and thin metal electrodes have to be minimized by suitable geometric design. Bimorph or plate actuators operated in the length extensional mode have an appropriate geometry so that the influence of the multilayer technology on the piezoelectric properties can be studied. These properties are given as a function of the number and thickness of the PZT layers. By comparison with calculated values the separate influence of the internal electrodes can be shown. Data for bimorph actuators with 30- mu m PZT layers and with a driving voltage down to 9 V are presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269368,"journal":{"name":"[Proceedings] 1990 IEEE 7th International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130392486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The phase transition temperature T/sub C/ in the ferroelectric decreased with decreasing particle size, while T/sub N/ in the antiferroelectric changed insensitively with particle size. This dependence may mainly be caused by the effective surface tensional stress estimated by P=2 gamma /R, where gamma is the surface tension ( approximately 50-67 N/m) and R is the radius of the particle.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":269368,"journal":{"name":"[Proceedings] 1990 IEEE 7th International Symposium on Applications of Ferroelectrics","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120808508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The dielectric constant was theoretically calculated for a three-phase system i.e., BaTiO/sub 3/-nylon and air. The fraction of air was estimated from the difference in the measured and theoretical density. The experimentally observed dielectric behavior could be fitted to the theoretical curve by assuming a lower value for the dielectric constant of BaTiO/sub 3/.
