Abstract:

Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a promising manufacturing platform in biomedical engineering. It offers significant advantages in fabricating complex and customized biomedical products with accuracy, efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and reproducibility. The rapidly growing field of three-dimensional printing (3DP), which emphasizes customization as its key advantage, is actively searching for functional materials. Among these materials, piezoelectric materials are highly desired due to their linear electromechanical and thermoelectric properties. Polymer piezoelectrics and their composites are in high demand as biomaterials due to their controllable and reproducible piezoelectric properties. Three-dimensional printable piezoelectric materials have opened new possibilities for integration into biomedical fields such as sensors for healthcare monitoring, controlled drug delivery systems, tissue engineering, microfluidic, and artificial muscle actuators. Overall, this review paper provides insights into the fundamentals of polymer piezoelectric materials, the application of polymer piezoelectric materials in biomedical fields, and highlights the challenges and opportunities in realizing their full potential for functional applications. By addressing these challenges, integrating 3DP and piezoelectric materials can lead to the development of advanced sensors and devices with enhanced performance and customization capabilities for biomedical applications.

Abstract:

Piezoelectrics are materials that linearly deform in response to an applied electric field. As a fundamental prerequisite, piezoelectric materials must have a noncentrosymmetric crystal structure. For more than a century, this has remained a major obstacle for finding piezoelectric materials. We circumvented this limitation by breaking the crystallographic symmetry and inducing large and sustainable piezoelectric effects in centrosymmetric materials by the electric field–induced rearrangement of oxygen vacancies. Our results show the generation of extraordinarily large piezoelectric responses [with piezoelectric strain coefficients ( d 33 ) of ~200,000 picometers per volt at millihertz frequencies] in cubic fluorite gadolinium-doped CeO 2− x films, which are two orders of magnitude larger than the responses observed in the presently best-known lead-based piezoelectric relaxor–ferroelectric oxide at kilohertz frequencies. These findings provide opportunities to design piezoelectric materials from environmentally friendly centrosymmetric ones.

Abstract:

The development of new materials and the performance improvement of existing materials become an important subject from different aspects. In this paper, based on the theoretical research results of multiple piezoelectric effects, the influence of multiple piezoelectric effects on elastic coefficient of piezoelectric ceramics is studied. Theoretical analysis indicates that it is multiple piezoelectric effects that make piezoelectrics have two kinds of elastic and they result in the decrease of elastic compliance coefficients. Experimental validation is performed through PZT-5. Experimental results show that elastic compliance coefficient grows decreased by 0.912 times.

Abstract:

Piezoelectronics, as an efficient approach for energy conversion and sensing, have a far-reaching influence on energy harvesting, precise instruments, sensing, health monitoring and so on. A majority of the previous works on piezoelectronics concentrated on the materials that are applied at close to room temperatures. However, there is inadequate research on the materials for high-temperature piezoelectric applications, yet they also have important applications in the critical equipment of aeroengines and nuclear reactors in harsh and high-temperature conditions. In this review, we briefly introduce fundamental knowledge about the piezoelectric effect, and emphatically elucidate high-temperature piezoelectrics, involving: the typical piezoelectric materials operated in high temperatures, and the applications, limiting factors, prospects and challenges of piezoelectricity at high temperatures.

Abstract:

Our 21st century faces to a “sustainable society”, which enhances (a) usage of non-toxic materials, (b) disposal technology for existing hazardous materials, (c) reduction of contamination gas, (d) environmental monitoring system, (e) new energy source creation, and (f) energy-efficient device development in the piezoelectric area. With reducing their size, the electromagnetic components reduce their efficiency drastically. Thus, piezoelectric transducers with much less losses are highly sought recently. Piezoelectric devices seem to be all-around contributors and a key component to the above mentioned five R&D areas. Some of the efforts include: (a) Since the most popular piezoelectric lead zirconate titante ceramics will be regulated in European and Asian societies due to their toxicity (Pb2+ ion), lead-free piezoelectrics have been developed. (b) Since hazardous organic substances can easily be dissolved by the ultrasonic irradiation in water, a new safe disposal technology using piezoelectric transducers has been developed. (c) We demonstrated an energy recovery system on a hybrid car from its engine’s mechanical vibration to the rechargeable battery. (d) Micro ultrasonic motors based on piezoelectrics demonstrated 1/20 reduction in the volume and a 20-time increase in efficiency of the conventional electromagnetic motors. This paper introduces leading piezoelectric materials, devices, and drive/control methods, relating with the above “sustainability” technologies, aiming at further research expansion in this area.

Abstract:

By using piezoelectric materials, it is possible to convert clean and renewable energy sources into electrical energy. In this paper, the effect on the piezoelectro-elastic response of piezoelectric-fiber-reinforced nanocomposites by adding silica nanoparticles into the polyimide matrix is investigated by a micromechanical method. First, the Ji and Mori–Tanaka models are used to calculate the properties of the nanoscale silica-filled polymer. The nanoparticle agglomeration and silica–polymer interphase are considered in the micromechanical modeling. Then, considering the filled polymer as the matrix and the piezoelectric fiber as the reinforcement, the Mori–Tanaka model is used to estimate the elastic and piezoelectric constants of the piezoelectric fibrous nanocomposites. It was found that adding silica nanoparticles into the polymer improves the elastic and piezoelectric properties of the piezoelectric fibrous nanocomposites. When the fiber volume fraction is 60%, the nanocomposite with the 3% silica-filled polyimide exhibits 39%, 31.8%, and 37% improvements in the transverse Young’s modulus ET, transverse shear modulus GTL, and piezoelectric coefficient e31 in comparison with the composite without nanoparticles. Furthermore, the piezoelectro-elastic properties such as ET, GTL, and e31 can be improved as the nanoparticle diameter decreases. However, the elastic and piezoelectric constants of the piezoelectric fibrous nanocomposites decrease once the nanoparticles are agglomerated in the polymer matrix. A thick interphase with a high stiffness enhances the nanocomposite’s piezoelectro-elastic performance. Also, the influence of volume fractions of the silica nanoparticles and piezoelectric fibers on the nanocomposite properties is studied.

Abstract:

Piezoelectric materials find applications in number of devices requiring inter-conversion of mechanical and electrical energy. These devices include different types of sensors, actuators and energy harvesting devices. A number of lead-based perovskite compositions (PZT, PMN-PT, PZN-PT etc.) have dominated the field in last few decades owing to their giant piezoresponse and convenient application relevant tunability. With increasing environmental concerns, in the last one decade, focus has been shifted towards developing a better understanding of lead-free piezoelectric compositions in order to achieve an improved application relevant performance. Sodium potassium niobate (KxNa1-xNbO3, abbreviated as KNN) is one of the most interesting candidates in the class of lead-free piezoelectrics. Absence of any poisonous element makes it unique among all the other lead-free candidates having presence of bismuth. Curie temperature of 400"C, even higher than that of PZT is another advantage from the point of view of device applications.
Present work focuses on the development of fundamental understanding of the crystallographic nature, domain structure and domain dynamics of KNN. Since compositions close to x = 0.5 are of primary interest because of their superior piezoelectric activity among other compositions (0 < x < 1), crystallographic and domain structure studies are focused on this region of the phase diagram. KNN random ceramic, textured ceramic and single crystals were synthesized, which in complement to each other help in understanding the behavior of KNN.
K0.5Na0.5NbO3 single crystals grown by the flux method were characterized for their ferroelectric and piezoelectric behavior and dynamical scaling analysis was performed to reveal the origin of their moderate piezoelectric performance. Optical birefringence technique used to reveal the macro level crystallographic nature of x = 0.4, 0.5 and 0.6 crystals suggested them to have monoclinic Mc, monoclinic MA/B and orthorhombic structures respectively. Contrary to that, pair distribution function analysis performed on same composition crystals implies them to belonging to monoclinic Mc structure at local scale. Linear birefringence and piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) were used to reveal the domain structure at macro and micros scales respectively.
A noble sintering technique was developed to achieve > 99% density for KNN ceramics. These high density ceramics were characterized for their dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. A significant improvement in different piezoelectric coefficients of these ceramics validates the advantages of this sintering technique. Also lower defect levels in these high density ceramics lead to the superior ferroelectric fatigue behavior as well. To understand the role of seed crystals in switching behavior of textured ceramic, highly textured KNN ceramics (Lotgering factor ~ 88 %) were synthesized using TGG method. A sintering technique similar to one employed for random ceramics, was used to sinter textured KNN ceramics as well. Piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) study suggested these textured ceramics to have about 6¼m domains as compared to 2¼m domain size for random ceramics. Local switching behavior studied using switching spectroscopy (SS-PFM) revealed about two and half time improvement of local piezoresponse as compared to random counterpart.

Abstract:

Piezoelectric composite materials, consisting of a ferroelectric ceramic in an electrically-inactive polymer matrix, have been shown to greatly outperform single phase materials for certain applications. A new assembly technique, which electrically controls the spatial distribution of the ceramic within the polymer, promises to enhance the sensitivity of 0-3 type piezoelectric composites. The materials so-produced have a quasi 1-3 structure and it is intended that they will exhibit some of the advantages of 1- 3 piezoelectric composites, whilst retaining the simplicity of 0-3 manufacturing. The electric field structuring technique exploits the electrokinetic phenomenon of dielectrophoresis, which is responsible for the electrorheological effect. When a suspension of ceramic particles in an insulating fluid is exposed to a moderate AC electric field, the particles polarize and as a result they exhibit a mutually attractive force. Under suitable conditions the particles assemble into 'pearl-chains', 'fibrils' or columns, oriented parallel to the applied field. If the fluid is a resin pre-polymer, this can then be cured and the newly formed structures frozen into place to form a composite material with anisotropic properties. The key process parameters are explored and the implications of employing this method to produce technologically useful materials are discussed. It is demonstrated, for the first time, that dielectrophoresis can be used to induce anisotropic dielectric and piezoelectric properties in 55%vol. fraction ceramic/polymer composites. A model composite system of pure lead titanate in an epoxy resin is considered in basic detail. A method of producing a lead zirconate titanate (PZT) powder with a narrow particle size distribution, by flux growth, has been shown to be effective. New concepts in multiphase composites are introduced, whereby chains are formed within the confines of a second immiscible fluid or where particles of two different materials are mixed in a suspension, each material having its own 'polarization signature'.

Abstract:

This thesis explores local structure variation in (1-x)(Na0.5, Bi0.5)TiO3-xPbTiO3 (NBT-PT) and (Kx, Na1-x)0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (KNBT) around the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB). Local structure alignment or ordering in NBT-PT was achieved through the addition of PbTiO3 (PT), whilst in KNBT local ordering was induced by an applied electric field. Significant emphasis is placed on local structure analysis methods (up to 50 Å length scale) via pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. In situ temperature X-ray diffraction was used to characterise the average structure of NBT-PT. A transition from a rhombohedral structure for x = 0.08 to tetragonal for x = 0.18 was observed (MPB x = 0.13). The ferroelectric-paraelectric transition temperature was corroborated by permittivity measurements which also showed a transition from relaxor to ferroelectric behaviour with increasing x. Whole profile PDF refinement revealed the presence of a monoclinic phase for x = 0.14 acting as a lower symmetry bridge between rhombohedral and tetragonal phases. Range dependent PDF analysis was used to measure the coherence length of nanoscaled regions which decreased in size from 40 to 20 Å with increasing x. These regions persisted at temperatures above the paraelectric transition, though reduced in size across all compositions. The measurements illustrate the order inducing properties of PbTiO3, which suppresses nanoregions and promotes long-range ferroelectric order. PDF analysis of unpoled KNBT at unit-cell length scale distances was used to measure the local Bi off-centre displacement direction. For x = 0.10, a rhombohedral distortion was observed. This transitioned to a monoclinic distortion for x = 0.15, further evolving into a complex mixture of various monoclinic distortions for x = 0.20 (MPB). A tetragonal distortion was observed beyond the MPB (x = 0.30). The improved piezoelectric properties at the MPB are attributed to the greater availability of displacement directions. Under an applied electric field, the suppression in diffuse scattering and sharpening of PDF peaks indicating field induced ordering. Changes in the peak area ratios corresponding to Bi-Ti distances indicate reorientation behaviour along the applied field vector. Local strain analysis was achieved by measuring the PDF peak shift. The onset of linear strain corresponding to piezoelectric response occurred at an electric field (E) ≈ 1000 - 1250 V/mm for x = 0.20 and at E ≈ 2000 – 3000 V/mm for x = 0.15 and 0.18. Non-zero strain below the threshold field indicates the presence of localised strain assumed to be incipient to the macroscopic strain.

Abstract:

Piezoelectrics present an interactive electromechanical behaviour that, especially in recent years, has generated much interest since it renders these materials adapt for use in a variety of electronic and industrial applications like sensors, actuators, transducers, smart structures. Both mechanical and electric loads are generally applied on these devices and can cause high concentrations of stress, particularly in proximity of defects or inhomogeneities, such as flaws, cavities or included particles. A thorough understanding of their fracture behaviour is crucial in order to improve their performances and avoid unexpected failures. Therefore, a considerable number of research works have addressed this topic in the last decades. Most of the theoretical studies on this subject find their analytical background in the complex variable formulation of plane anisotropic elasticity. This theoretical approach bases its main origins in the pioneering works of Muskelishvili and Lekhnitskii who obtained the solution of the elastic problem in terms of independent analytic functions of complex variables. In the present work, the expressions of stresses and elastic and electric displacements are obtained as functions of complex potentials through an analytical formulation which is the application to the piezoelectric static case of an approach introduced for orthotropic materials to solve elastodynamics problems. This method can be considered an alternative to other formalisms currently used, like the Stroh’s formalism. The equilibrium equations are reduced to a first order system involving a six-dimensional vector field. After that, a similarity transformation is induced to reach three independent Cauchy-Riemann systems, so justifying the introduction of the complex variable notation. Closed form expressions of near tip stress and displacement fields are therefore obtained. In the theoretical study of cracked piezoelectric bodies, the issue of assigning consistent electric boundary conditions on the crack faces is of central importance and has been addressed by many researchers. Three different boundary conditions are commonly accepted in literature: the permeable, the impermeable and the semipermeable (“exact”) crack model. This thesis takes into considerations all the three models, comparing the results obtained and analysing the effects of the boundary condition choice on the solution. The influence of load biaxiality and of the application of a remote electric field has been studied, pointing out that both can affect to a various extent the stress fields and the angle of initial crack extension, especially when non-singular terms are retained in the expressions of the electro-elastic solution. Furthermore, two different fracture criteria are applied to the piezoelectric case, and their outcomes are compared and discussed. The work is organized as follows: Chapter 1 briefly introduces the fundamental concepts of Fracture Mechanics. Chapter 2 describes plane elasticity formalisms for an anisotropic continuum (Eshelby-Read-Shockley and Stroh) and introduces for the simplified orthotropic case the alternative formalism we want to propose. Chapter 3 outlines the Linear Theory of Piezoelectricity, its basic relations and electro-elastic equations. Chapter 4 introduces the proposed method for obtaining the expressions of stresses and elastic and electric displacements, given as functions of complex potentials. The solution is obtained in close form and non-singular terms are retained as well. Chapter 5 presents several numerical applications aimed at estimating the effect of load biaxiality, electric field, considered permittivity of the crack. Through the application of fracture criteria the influence of the above listed conditions on the response of the system and in particular on the direction of crack branching is thoroughly discussed.

Abstract:

As practice has shown, piezoelectric motors based on the principles of the inverse piezoelectric effect can become the basis for the latest automation systems and precision mechanics, as well as innovative lighting technology; The main interest of developers of our company is the possibility of building on the basis of the inverse piezoelectric effect of systems and configurations related to the systems of precision and small-sized stepper motors As the requirements for accuracy and weight reduction of such engines become stricter, including by reducing overall dimensions, more and more variants and technical solutions based on the complex application of special composite materials are offered as a base material for building elements and structures of such engines. In modern electronic equipment, especially mass-produced, it is extremely important to correctly determine the initial technical requirements for the product, which in the process of production and operation should allow to carry out innovative modification of the product without changing the fundamental basis of its design, circuit solutions and combination of materials and component parts.

Abstract:

As practice has shown, piezoelectric motors operating on the principles of the inverse piezoelectric effect can serve as the foundation for cutting-edge automation and precision mechanics systems, as well as innovative lighting technology. Designers are particularly interested in the potential to develop systems and configurations of precise and compact stepper motors based on the inverse piezoelectric effect. As demands for precision and weight reduction in such motors become increasingly stringent, particularly with the aim of reducing overall dimensions, a growing number of options and technical solutions based on the integrated use of specialized composite materials are being proposed as the foundational materials for constructing the components and structures of these motors.
