CCFL 구동용 인버터 모듈 개발을 위해, 내부전극 층수에 따른 Rosen-type 적층형 압전변압기를 제작하였으며, 내부전극 층수에 따른 출력 및 효율을 분석하였다. 압전변압기용 원료로는 PZT계 상용원료를 사용하였으며 구동회로는 Half-bridge 방식을 적용하여 압전인버터 모듈을 제작하였다 제작된 압전인버터 모듈의 입력전압은 12.5 V이고 스위칭 주파수는 104.3 KHz로서 압전인버터 구동시 약 100배의 승압비를 얻었으며, 효율은 87%이다.

A multilayer square-type piezoelectric transformer with a hole at the center was investigated in this paper. Temperature distribution at the center was improved by using this construction, therefore increasing input voltage and output power. This model was simulated and investigated successfully by applying a finite element method (FEM) in ATILA software. An optimized structure was then fabricated, examined, and compared to the simulation results. Electrical characteristics, including output voltage and output power, were measured at different load resistances. The temperature distribution was also monitored using an infrared camera. The piezoelectric transformer operated at first radial vibration mode and a frequency area of 70 kHz. The 16 W output power was achieved in a three-layer transformer with 96% efficiency and $20^{\circ}C$ temperature rise from room temperature under 115 V driving voltage, 100 ${\Omega}$ matching load, $28{\times}28{\times}1.8mm$ size, and 2 mm hole diameter. With these square-type multilayer piezoelectric transformers, the temperature was concentrated around the hole and lower than in piezoelectric transformers without a hole.

This paper deals with the vibration characteristics of stacked transducers composed of piezoelectric discs, which are main elements of ultrasonic sensors or actuators. The stacked transducers were devised in the sense of natural frequencies. Two- or three-layer transducers were fabricated with piezoelectric discs of different diameters. The natural frequencies were determined by the finite element analysis and they were verified by comparing them with experimental results. It appeared that the natural frequencies of the stacked piezoelectric transducers include the natural frequencies of the constituent piezoelectric discs and the natural frequencies caused by stacking. Based on these results, it would be possible to predict the vibration characteristics of the stacked piezoelectric transducers in a design process.

The radial vibration behaviors of a circular cylindrical composite piezoelectric transducer (CPT) are investigated. The CPT is composed of a piezoelectric ring polarized in the radial direction and an elastic ring graded in power-law variation form along the radial direction. The governing equations for plane stress state problem under the harmonic excitation are derived and the exact solutions for both piezoelectric and functionally graded elastic rings are obtained. The characteristic equations for resonant and anti-resonant frequencies are established. The presented methodology is fit to carry out the parametric investigation for composite piezoelectric transducers (CPTs) with arbitrary thickness in radial direction. With the aid of numerical analysis, the relationship between the radial vibration behaviors of the cylindrical CPT and the material inhomogeneity index of the functionally graded elastic ring as well as the geometric parameters of the CPTs are illustrated and some important features are reported.

Magnetoelectric (ME) composite is composed of a piezoelectric material and a magnetostrictive material. Among various ME structures, 2-2 type layered ME composites are anticipated to be used as high-sensitivity magnetic field sensors and energy harvesting devices especially operating at its resonance modes. Rosen type piezoelectric transducer using piezoelectric material is known to amplify a small electrical input voltage to a large electrical output voltage. The output voltage of these Rosen type piezoelectric transducers can be further enhanced by modifying them into ME composite structures. Herein, we fabricated Rosen type ME composites by sandwiching Rosen type PMN-PZT single crystal between two Ni layers and studied their ME coupling. However, the voltage step-up ratio at the resonance frequency was found to be smaller than the value calculated with α_ME value. The ATILA FEA (Finite Elements Analysis) simulation results showed that the position of the nodal point was changed with the presence of a magnetostrictive layer. Thus, while designing a Rosen type ME composite with high performance in a resonant driving situation, it is necessary to optimize the position of the nodal point by optimizing the thickness or length of the magnetostrictive layer.

The flexural vibration of aluminum beams with active and passive constrained-layer damping has been investigated experimentally to design a structure with maximum possible damping capacity. Piezoelectric film is used as a sensor and piezoceramic as an actuator for the negative velocity feedback control. The experimental results are compared with those by the finite element analysis. This paper shows the effectiveness of active constrained-layer damping treatment through experiments, and we have carried out an experiment to study the effect of beam thickness.

In this study, piezoelectric transducers were designed and manufactured using PZT-5A which had relatively high electromechanical coefficient, nondestructive testing system was developed which was able to inspect automatically using stepping motors, PC-Lab, and PC-Scope. The optimum design conditions for NDT were presented and verified comparing PZT-5A probes with comercial probes. It was proved by simulation and experiments that Epoxy is a good material as matching and backing layers. The envelope was reduced 60% with matching layer and 76% with matching and backing layer. NDT was successfully carried out for aluminum test pieces. Distance error of PZT-5A probe was 2.8%.

In this paper, we examine the steady state dynamic electromechanical behavior of an eccentric Yoffe crack in a piezoelectric ceramic layer bonded between two orthotropic elastic layers under the combined anti-plane mechanical shear and in-plane electrical loadings. We adopted permeable crack face condition. Numerical values on the dynamic energy release rate are obtained. The initial crack propagation orientation for PZT-5H piezoceramic is also predicted by maximum energy release rate criterion.
