Relative permittivity (ε r) is the ratio between the absolute permittivity of the piezoelectric material, ε, and the vacuum permittivity, ε 0. The electromechanical coupling factor k is an indicator of the effectiveness with which a piezoelectric material converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, or converts mechanical energy into ...
The piezoelectric coefficient or piezoelectric modulus, usually written d 33, quantifies the volume change when a piezoelectric material is subject to an electric field, or the polarization on the application of stress.
In order to obtain a piezoelectric response, the material must first be poled in a large electric field. Poling of the material typically requires an external field of above 30 megavolts per metre (MV/m). Thick films (typically >100 μm) must be heated during the poling process in order to achieve a large piezoelectric response. Thick films are ...
Piezoelectric balance presented by Pierre Curie to Lord Kelvin, Hunterian Museum, Glasgow. Piezoelectricity (/ ˌ p iː z oʊ-, ˌ p iː t s oʊ-, p aɪ ˌ iː z oʊ-/, US: / p i ˌ eɪ z oʊ-, p i ˌ eɪ t s oʊ-/) [1] is the electric charge that accumulates in certain solid materials—such as crystals, certain ceramics, and biological matter such as bone, DNA, and various proteins—in ...
It is a ceramic perovskite material that shows a marked piezoelectric effect, meaning that the compound changes shape when an electric field is applied. It is used in a number of practical applications such as ultrasonic transducers and piezoelectric resonators. It is a white to off-white solid. [1]

Compared with other III-nitride materials, AlN has a larger spontaneous polarization due to the higher nonideality of its crystal structure (P sp: AlN 0.081 C/m 2 > InN 0.032 C/m 2 > GaN 0.029 C/m 2). [13] Moreover, the piezoelectric nature of AlN gives rise to internal piezoelectric polarization charges under strain.
