The anomalous shift of the hysteresis loops observed experimentally has been correctly reproduced with this model. It is found that such a shift is strongly dependent on the thickness ratio υ of the interfacial layer to the bulk film, as well as on the frequency of the external applied field. Furthermore, the model, when combined with the Schottky emission, can also properly describe the retention loss in polarization. Theoretical predictions based on this approach may provide a method to reduce the failure of ferroelectric capacitor.","PeriodicalId":285701,"journal":{"name":"2011 Symposium on Piezoelectricity, Acoustic Waves and Device Applications (SPAWDA)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124325263","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}

In the design of resonators, we always want to get accurate solutions for the determination of structural parameters. With complicated boundary conditions and geometry by taking packaging and electrodes into consideration, it will be impossible to solve with the Mindlin plate equations. On the other hand, the finite element method (FEM) with three-dimensional theory of piezoelectricity can efficiently solve such a problem,although earlier studies in the thickness-shear vibrations of quartz crystal resonators with actual model by popular FEM tools such as ANSYS are limited. Analytical modules are used in the analysis of the thickness-shear vibrations of quartz plates in this study, and the curve of fundamental frequency of thickness-shear vibration is obtained by changing the length and width of quartz crystal plates. In the analytical model with supports, through altering the length of plates, radius and the distance between conductive adhesive supports, the frequency curves with different parameters are obtained.","PeriodicalId":285701,"journal":{"name":"2011 Symposium on Piezoelectricity, Acoustic Waves and Device Applications (SPAWDA)","volume":"223 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122893034","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}

Numerical results of stress distribution around the hole are then presented for different loading conditions, different material properties and different plate sizes, respectively.

The transverse vibration is only considered since it is the dominant vibration component for paraboloidal cylindrical shells. A new mode shape function of the transverse vibration that satisfies the simply-supported boundary condition is derived. The shell whose meridian height and radial distance are the same is studied as a standard case. The curvature effect is the most primary fact that influence the piezoelectric signal generation.

Based on the ordinary Kirchhoff bending theory, the governing equation of flexural motion for a stiffened plated attached with a small LPA is derived by smearing the system to an equivalent plate. Analytical expression of the control force is obtained, based on the control force formula position of the LPA is optimized. For a simply supported rectangular cross-stiffened plate, Galerkin method is employed to calculate the response of the system uncontrolled and controlled as the velocity proportional feedback scheme is used. With a 4-layered LPA, only 1% area of the plate, the vibration during a wide frequency span is depressed significantly by voltage about 80V.

Love & Kirchhoff thin shell theory and electromechanical equations are used to derive the voltage across the surface area of the piezoelectric patch. Considering the thin thickness of piezoelectric patch, its capacitance can be estimated by utilizing the formula of plate capacitor. Consequently, the energies can be presented with the equations only containing variables of capacitance and voltage. In case study, effect of the line loading location is firstly studied. The results show that the optimal position of longitudinal line loading is related to circumferential mode number, while it's only related to longitudinal mode number for circumferential line loading.
