Popis: | Monolithic multimaterial monomorphs, comprised of varying ratios of piezoelectric 0.65Pb(Mg1/3 Nb2/3)O3-0.35PbTiO3 to electrostrictive 0.90Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.10PbTiO3, have been co-fired at 1150∘C. The relative permittivity, displacement, and polarization hysteresis were investigated for varying ratios of piezoelectric to electrostrictive material. The permittivity of the 1:1 multimaterial monomorphs followed the dielectric mixing laws, showing a dielectric constant of 5,500 at room temperature. The P-E hysteresis loop of the 1:1 sample exhibited a maximum and remnant polarization slightly less than the piezoelectric PMN-PT 65/35, but higher than the electrostrictive PMN-PT 90/10. Displacement was found to be higher for the 3:1 monolithic monomorph actuators, reaching 76 μ m at 6 kV/cm. The results indicate that by minimizing the electrostrictive layer thickness the tip displacement can be substantially increased while maintaining a lower hysteresis than that of the purely piezoelectric counterpart. |
