Origin of Piezoelectricity
• Piezoelectricity
– Discovered in 1880 by Jacque and Pierre Curie
– Materials exhibits electrical voltage with applied pressure
– Green “piezo” meaning “to press” – “pressure electricity”
– Converse piezoelectric effect (discovered shortly after)– Converse piezoelectric effect (discovered shortly after)
• Conversion of mechanical to electrical energy and vice versa

In the poling process, an intense dc field of the order of 20-25 kV/cm is applied to ferroelectric ceramic at a temperature sufficiently below its
curie point. The application of such an intense electric field on ferroelectric
Piezoelectricity in Ceramics:
intense electric field on ferroelectric ceramic changes its domain patterns which leads to a preferential alignment of the polarity in the direction of the applied electric field.

Ceramics:
Thus Quartz which is not a ferroelectric material, can not exhibit piezoelectricity in polycrystalline form where as PZT, which is a ferroelectric, can show piezoelectricity after appropriate poling

MATHEMATICAL TREATMENT OF FERROELECTRICS
TENSOR REPRESENTATION OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
x = d E
E and x are first-rank and second-rank tensors, respectively, the d should have a
third-rank tensor form represented as
xjk = ΣΣΣΣ dijk Ei (2.5)
ii
The d tensor is composed of three layers of the symmetrical matrices.
d111 d112 d113
1st layer (i = 1) d121 d122 d123
d131 d132 d133
d211 d212 d213
2nd layer (i = 2) d221 d222 d223 (2.6)
d231 d232 d233
d311 d312 d313
3rd layer (i = 3) d321 d322 d323
d331 d332 d333
REDUCTION OF THE TENSOR (MATRIX NOTATION)
A general third-rank tensor has 33 = 27 independent components. Since dijk is
symmetrical in j and k some of the coefficients can be eliminated, leaving 18
independent dijk coefficients; this facilitates the use of matrix notation.
So far all the equations have been developed in full tensor notation. But when
calculating actual properties, it is advantageous to reduce the number of suffixes as
much as possible. This is done by defining new symbols, for instance, d21 = d211 and
d14 = 2d123: The second and third suffixes in the full tensor notation are replaced by a
single suffix 1 to 6 in matrix notation, as follows:

d Tensor Form for 4mm Symmetry
For a third-rank tensor such as the piezoelectric tensor, the transformation due
to a change in coordinate system is represented by
d'ijk = Σ ailajmakn dlmn (2.15)
When the crystal has a 4-fold axis along z-axis, for example, the
transformation matrix is given by0 1 0
