摘要
The aim of this paper consists in the determination of the piezoelectric transverse coefficient d(31) of PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT) thin films integrated in dedicated multilayer silicon-based micromembranes exhibiting an initial buckled profile. An analytical model specific to this configuration was built and used for the calculation of d(31) starting with the static profiles of the microfabricated devices determined by means of a double-beam interferometer. The influence of dc voltage and buckling effects on the d(31) piezoelectric coefficient at the microscale were investigated, and high values were obtained, from 30 to 75 pm/V, within a hysteresyslike cycle. These results demonstrated the good electrical behavior of PZT thin films at the microscale with a low influence of buckling effects and determined optimal operation conditions for high values of d(31).
