Abstract: | Large piezoelectric d33 coefficients around 600 pC/N are found in corona-charged non-uniform electrets consisting of elastically “soft” (microporous
polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE) and “stiff” (perfluorinated cyclobutene PFCB) polymer layers. The piezoelectric activity of
the two-layer fluoropolymer stack exceeds the d33 coefficient of the ferroelectric ceramic lead zirconate titanate (PZT) by more than a factor of two and that of the ferroelectric
polymer polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) by a factor of 20. Soft piezoelectric materials may become interesting for a large
number of sensor and transducer applications, in areas such as security systems, medical diagnostics, and nondestructive testing.
