Abstract
  • The piezoelectric fatigue behavior of Pb-free ceramics based on solid solutions of Bi(Zn₀.₅Ti₀.₅)O₃-(Bi₀.5K₀.₅)TiO₃-(Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅)TiO₃ was characterized at 50 kV/cm after 10⁶ bipolar cycles. Ferroelectric compositions containing 2.5% Bi(Zn₀.₅Ti₀.₅)O₃ exhibited only minor losses in maximum strain (~10%). In compositions with 5% Bi(Zn₀.₅Ti₀.₅)O₃ that exhibit large electric field-induced strains, the electromechanical strain actually increased 4%, exhibiting essentially fatigue free behavior. This finding demonstrates that these materials have excellent potential for demanding high cycle applications such as microelectromechanical systems actuators. (C) 2012 American Institute of Physics.
