  • 일반적으로 PZT계 세라믹스는 높은 결정격자 이방성을 가지고 있으며, 우수한 압전특성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 특성을 보이기 위해서는 높은 온도($1200^{\circ}C$)에서 소결을 해야하기 때문에 PbO의 휘발로 인하여 환경문제가 야기되고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 Li, Na같은 액상소결제를 첨가시켜 소결온도를 낮추는 연구를 하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Pb(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$-PZT세라믹스가 갖는 높은 결정격자 이방성을 유지시키고, 저온소결시 압전 및 유전특성을 향상시키기 위해서 $Pb(Mg_{1/2}W_{1/2})O_3$를 치환시켜 attrition milling 시간에 따른 PWM-PMN-PZT세라믹스의 압전특성을 조사하였다.

  • This work investigated the electromechanical performance of a cantilevered vibration energy harvester incorporating the single crystal PMN-PZT, manufactured with the most recent technology of solid-state single crystal growth. The performances of single crystal PMN-PZTs with two different crystallographic axes such as [011] and [001] are compared with those of PZT ceramics. From the investigations, it is shown that the [001]-poled PMN-PZT is advantageous for the excitations containing single dominant frequency component, while the single crystal [011]-$d_{32}$ is superior in terms of the energy storage density and energy conversion efficiency.

  • Due to the environmental issue vast research is going on to replace the widely used lead contented piezoelectric materials. Bismuth sodium titanate (abbreviated as BNT) based bismuth sodium titanate-barium titanate (abbreviated as BNBT) ceramic was prepared by using modified method rather than conventional mixed oxide method. This modification was made to improve the properties of BNT based ceramic. In this procedure $BaTiO_3$ (abbreviated as BT) was prepared using conventional mixed oxide method. Analytical grade raw materials of $BaCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ were weighted and ball milled using ethanol medium. The mixed slurry was dried and sieved under 80 mesh. Then the powder was calcined at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. This calcined BT powder was used in the preparation of BNBT. Stoichiometric amount of $Bi_2O_3$, $Na_2CO_3$, $TiO_2$ and BT were weighted and mixed by using ball mill. The used calcination temperature was $850^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. Calcined powder was taken for another milling step. BNBT disks were pressed to 15 mm of diameter and then cold isostatical press (CIP) was used. Pressed samples were sintered at $1150^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The SEM microstructure analysis revealed that the grain shape of the sintered ceramic was polyhedral and grain boundary was well matched where as the sample prepared by conventional method showed irregular arrangement and grain boundary not well matched. And sintered density was better (5.78 g/cc) for the modified method. It was strongly observed that the properties of BNBT ceramic near MPB composition was found to be improved by the modified method compare to the conventional mixed oxide method. The piezoelectric constant dB of 177.33 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor $k_p$ of 33.4%, dielectric constant $K_{33}^T$ of 688.237 and mechanical quality factor $Q_m$ of 109.37 was found.

  • The $Pb_{0.94}Y_{0.04}[(Zr_{0.6}Sn_{0.4})_{0.915}Ti_{0.085}]O_3$ ceramics which corresponded to the antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase boundary composition were prepared for digital-type-piezoelectric/electrostrictive device application. Their dielectric, field-induced polarization (P) and strain (X) behaviors were studied with variations in sintering condition and excess PbO content. The orthorhombic structure of specimens was hardly affected either by excess PbO addition or sintering temperature. With increasing excess PbO content, grains tended to be smaller and rounded ones, and the optimum sintering temperature was lowered. Excess PbO addition stabilized the antiferroelectric phase of the specimen effectively, which was confirmed by P-E and X-E analyses. Also the digital-type-strain character was found to be enhanced despite of slight increase in phase transition (AFE-FE) field and electrical resistivity, and decrease in maximum strain. These results were explained in terms of possible lattice defects and domain wall motion.

  • Polycrystalline $Sr_{2}Nb_{2}O_{7}$ and $La_{2}Ti_{2}O_{7}$ ceramics with very high Curie temperatures were synthesized by the chemical coprecipitation method (CCP). The powders synthesized were identified by XRD and their sintering behavior and physical properties were studied. The grain-orientation and electrical properties of sintered ceramics were investigated as a function of firing temperature. Single phase could be obtained by CCP method at temperature lower than that of the conventional method by 100 - $150^{\circ}C$. Strontium niobate, $Sr_{2}Nb_{2}O_{7}$, powder was Prepared by CCP method at temperatures as low as $800^{\circ}C$ via intermediate phase of $Sr_{5}Nb_{4}O_{15}$ formed at $700^{\circ}C$. The resulting CCP-derived powder was observed to have finer and more uniform particle size distribution than those obtained through the conventional or the molten salt synthesis method. Sintering of CCP-derived $Sr_{2}Nb_{2}O_{7}$ powder at $1500^{\circ}C$ yielded a highly dense ceramics with 97% theoretical density. Very high grain-orientation developed along the (0k0) direction was observed by SEM, which resulted in anisotropic dielectric properties of the sintered samples, with the dielectric constant values approaching those for single crystal.

  • 전기 에너지를 기계적 에너지 변환하고 또한, 기계적 에너지를 전기 에너지로 변환할 수 있는 압전 세라믹스는 압전 변압기 (piezoelectric transformer), 초음파모터, 센서등과 같은 응용분야에 넓게 사용되고 있다. 특히, 압전 변압기의 설계와 제조방법에 대해서는 이미 상당히 많은 연구가 수행되어 왔다. 특히, 전원장치에 있어서는 현재 주요부품으로 사용되고 있는 권선형 변압기와 같은 전자 변환기의 대체품으로서 누설손실이 없는 압전세라믹스 소재의 특성을 이용한 압전변압기의 개발과 응용연구가 국내외적으로 활발히 진행 중이다. 하지만 지금 까지 널리 사용된 PZT계 압전 세라믹스는 환경문제에 있어서 문제점을 가지고 있다. $1200^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 소결되는 PZT계열의 압전세라믹스 소재를 사용한 전자부품의 60~70%이상이 PbO로 구성되어 있기 때문에 $1000^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 급격한 휘발특성을 보이는 PbO로 인한 환경오염문제가 대두되고 있다. 압전변압기, 초음파모터등에 사용될 수 있는 무연계 압전재료 중에 PZT 압전소자의 기능을 대체할 만한 물질로는 높은 큐리온도와 우수한 압전특성을 보이는 $(Na,K)NbO_3$세라믹스가 가장 유력한 것으로 알려져 있다. 즉, 압전변압기용 조성 세라믹스는 높은 에너지 변환효율을 위해서 전기기계 결합계수($k_p$)가 커야 되며, 발열에 의한 온도 상승을 억제하기 위하여 기계적 품질계수($Q_m$)가 큰 것이 바람직하다. 또한, 높은 전류를 발생하기 위해서는 유전상수가 커, 압전변압기의 출력측 정전용량을 크게 하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 무연계 압전세라믹스를 개발하고, 이를 이용한 전력밀도(power density)가 높은 무연계 압전변압기를 제작하여 그에 대한 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 무연 압전변압기용 압전 세라믹스를 개발하기 위해 뛰어난 압전 및 유전특성을 가진 무연$(Na,K)NbO_3$계 세라믹스를 기본조성으로 하였고, KCN을 복합 첨가하여 볼 변화에 따른 미세구조, 압전 및 유전특성을 조사하고. 가장 우수한 조성으로 비납 압전변압기를 제작하여 전기적특성을 조사하였다.

  • A linear ultrasonic motor was designed by a combination of the first longitudinal and fourth bending mode, and the motor consisted of a straight aluminum alloys bar bonded with a piezoelectric ceramic element as a driving element. That is,$L_1-B_4$ linear ultrasonic motor can be constructed by a multi-mode vibrator of longitudinal and bending modes. Linear ultrasonic motors are based on an elliptical motion on the surface elastic body, such as bar or plates. In general, the natural resonance frequency of the stator is used as a driving frequency of the motor which provides a large elliptical motion. The corresponding eigenmode of one resonance frequency can be excited twice at the same time with a Phase shift of 90 degrees in space and time. And the rotation can be reversed by changing the phase between the two signals from sin$\omega$t to cos$\omega$t. Moreover, the tangential force pushes the slider(rotor) and, therefore, determines the thrust and speed of the motor. The experimental results of fabrication motors, bimorph-tyPe motor showed more excellent than unimorph-type. The maximum speed of TBL-200, TBL-300, TBL-400, TBL -220, TBL-310 and TBL-420 motors were 0.12, 0.37, 0.39, 0.14, 0.55 and $0.60ms6{-1}$, respectively. And the efficiency were reported 1.15, 7.9, 6.6, 2.36, 10.1 and 16.5%, respectively. That time, output thrust of the motor was a strong(1~2N) and the weight of stator was a lightness(5~7g).

  • Based on the super elastic properties of the shape memory alloy (SMA) and the inverse piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric (PZT) ceramics, a kind of hybrid semi-active control device was designed and made, its mechanical properties test was done under different frequency and different voltage. The local search ability of genetic algorithm is poor, which would fall into the defect of prematurity easily. A kind of adaptive immune memory cloning algorithm(AIMCA) was proposed based on the simulation of clone selection and immune memory process. It can adjust the mutation probability and clone scale adaptively through the way of introducing memory cell and antibody incentive degrees. And performance indicator based on the modal controllable degree was taken as antigen-antibody affinity function, the optimization analysis of damper layout in a space truss structure was done. The structural seismic response was analyzed by applying the neural network prediction model and T-S fuzzy logic. Results show that SMA and PZT friction composite damper has a good energy dissipation capacity and stable performance, the bigger voltage, the better energy dissipation ability. Compared with genetic algorithm, the adaptive immune memory clone algorithm overcomes the problem of prematurity effectively. Besides, it has stronger global searching ability, better population diversity and faster convergence speed, makes the damper has a better arrangement position in structural dampers optimization leading to the better damping effect.
