摘要
Piezoelectric properties and related figures of merit are studied in novel 1-3-type composites based on ferroelectric domain-engineered lead-free single crystal with the relatively large longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient d_(33).Relationships between the piezoelectric properties and the set of figures of merit are analyzed for the 1-3 and 1-3-0 composites that contain the same single-crystal and polymer components.For a composite characterized by 1-3-0 connectivity,an influence of a porous piezo-passive matrix on the figures of merit and their volume-fraction behavior is considered additionally.A large anisotropy of figures of merit is observed in the 1-3-0 composite with specific porous matrices.A diagram is put forward to show volume-fraction regions of the large anisotropy of figures of merit of the studied 1-3-0 composite.Due to large figures of merit and their considerable anisotropy,the studied lead-free composites can be applied in piezoelectric energy-harvesting systems,sensors,transducers,and so on.
