PZT 계 압전세라믹스의 전기 및 음향특성에 관한 연구

a study on the Electrical and acoustical properties of PZT ceramic.

Electrically active part of the piezoelectric sound element is a ceramic thin circular disk cemented to a metal base plate (using a type of thermosetting epoxy). The active part is a thin lead zirconate titanate disk (PZT). The piezoelectric sound element is so dimensioned that its basic resonance frequency is approximately if the center of the audible frequency band: This frequency is mainly determined by the geometry and the sort of the metal base plate materials. In this study, four kinds of PZT ceramic and two classes of thin metal base plate were prepared. It is observed that dielectric and pizoelectric properties relate to acoustical properties (particularly sound pressure level).
