Piezoelectric materials are crystalline materials
that exhibit voltage between the two ends when subjected to pressure. They are
a special type of functional material that can generate charges when subjected
to mechanical stress or mechanical deformation when subjected to an electric
field. Piezoelectric materials play an important role in many application
fields such as electronic devices, sensors, acoustic equipment, medical equipment,
precision instruments, etc.
Introduction to Subdivision Types
Inorganic
Piezoelectric Materials
|
Divided
into piezoelectric crystals and piezoelectric ceramics. Piezoelectric
crystals generally refer to piezoelectric single crystals; Piezoelectric
ceramics generally refer to piezoelectric polycrystals.
|
Organic
Piezoelectric Materials
|
Also
known as piezoelectric polymers, such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) (thin
film) and other organic piezoelectric (thin film) materials represented by
it.
|
Composite
Piezoelectric Materials
|
This
type of material is composed of sheet, rod, or powder piezoelectric materials
embedded in organic polymer substrates.
