High diffusion barrier and piezoelectric nanocomposites based on polyvinylidene fluoride‐trifluoroethylene copolymer and hydrophobized clay

Nanocomposites based on polyvinylidene fluoride–trifluoroethylene copolymer and up to 4 vol % of hydrophobized clay nanoparticles are investigated. The structure, piezoelectric properties, and oxygen permeability of solvent cast films are analyzed before and after annealing above the Curie temperature of the polymer. Exfoliation of the clay takes place at concentrations up to 1 vol %, beyond which it rapidly drops and is absent at a concentration of 4 vol %. The presence of clay does not change the crystallinity of the polymer, but leads to a threefold decrease of the oxygen permeability at a concentration of 0.5 vol %. Annealing at 130 °C increases the crystallinity, the proportion of β phase up to 94%, and the piezoelectric coefficient by 20–40% at clay fractions below 1 vol %. Annealing also leads to a remarkable 3‐ to 10‐fold decrease of O₂ permeability and to intriguing changes of the activation energy for O₂ transport, which decreases from 56 kJ/mol for the as‐cast polymer to below 10 kJ/mol for the polymer and exfoliated composite. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

4D Printing based piezoelectric composite for medical applications

Additive manufacturing (AM), otherwise known as three‐dimensional (3D) printing, is driving major innovations in many areas, such as engineering, manufacturing, art, education, and medicine. Although a considerable amount of progress has been made in this field, additional research work is required to overcome various remaining challenges. Recently, one of the actively researched areas lies in the AM of smart materials and structures. Electroactive materials incorporated in 3D printing have given birth to 4D printing, where 3D printed structures can perform as actuating and/or sensing systems, making it possible to deliver electrical signals under external mechanical stimuli and vice versa. In this paper, we present a lightweight, low cost piezoelectric material based on the dispersion of inorganic ferroelectric submicron particles in a polymer matrix. We report on how the proposed material is compatible with the AM process. Finally, we discuss its potential applications for healthcare, especially in smart implants prostheses. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part B: Polym. Phys. 2019 , 57, 109–115     

低压微位移驱动电路及控制方法

讨论了低压微位移驱动电路及控制方法在光电轮廓仪上的运用。采用低压驱动电路驱动压电陶瓷相移器对参考光束进行相移，从而使仪器质量减轻、体积缩小、成本降低。在运用该电路时，为了解决压电陶瓷低电压区非线性误差大的问题，用PC计算机控制压电陶瓷上所加电压的电压值，由摄像头摄取图像并计算出干涉条纹的间隔，然后由PC计算机修改压电陶瓷上所加的电压值，直至干涉条纹相位差达到要求值。该方法的优点是：可消除压电陶瓷低压区的非线性误差，使得开环电路得到闭环的效果；可降低机械零部件的装配难度。     

并联铁电体冲击去极化输出电流实验和计算

 为分析不同数量铁电体的输出电流特征,进行了多片并联PZT95/5铁电体冲击去极化实验,测量了电阻负载下铁电体的输出电流;建立了并联铁电体输出电流的计算模型,计算了并联铁电体的输出电流。通过比较计算和实验结果,分析了铁电体数量和冲击波状态对铁电体输出电流的影响。结果表明：若进入铁电体的冲击波为平面波,铁电体输出电流的波形接近方波,电流峰值随铁电体并联数量的增加成比例增加,冲击波波形和侧向稀疏波对铁电体输出电流波形和去极化率有很大的影响。     

Influence of the stress on magnetoelectric effect in magnetostrictive-PZT bilayers

In this letter, we investigate the influence of the stress on magnetoelectric (ME) effect in a magnetostrictive-PZT bilayer. ME voltage coefficient α*_E = δE / δH, where δE is the induced electric field for an applied alternating current (ac) magnetic field δH, is obtained by solving the stress-related piezoelectric constitutive equation and the conventional magnetostrictive equation with appropriate boundary condition. Based on the free-energy density function of the PZT film in stress state, we get the stress-related piezoelectric charge coefficient ^p d*₃₁ and dielectric permittivity ^pε*₃₃. After taking the cobalt ferrite (CFO) as magnetostrictive phase, it is found that α*_E increases with decreasing 2-d compressive stress for CFO-PZT, which not only is qualitatively consistent with previous experimental measurements, but also provides a possible route to improve the ME effect.

用于地基望远镜的高分辨率倾斜镜设计

根据多镜面地基望远镜在近红外实现共相衍射极限成像的需求,提出了一种基于压电堆栈致动器的高分辨率倾斜镜设计方案。该方案以哑铃型柔性铰链和菱形位移缩小结构(RADS)作为倾斜镜的运动传递元件,压电堆栈致动器(PSA)作为动力元件,并使用电涡流传感器作为角度测量部件。介绍了高分辨倾斜镜的工作原理,并对哑铃型柔性铰链和菱形位移缩小结构进行设计。柔性铰链和位移缩小结构的关键结构参数均采用理论计算、实验和仿真进行优化。建立倾斜镜模型,利用理论计算和有限元仿真软件分别计算倾斜镜的倾斜角度和分辨率。实验结果表明：设计的倾斜镜角度分辨率达到0.017″,最大倾斜角度为14.6″,谐振频率为136.97 Hz,与有限元仿真结果相吻合,满足地基望远镜系统衍射极限成像的要求。     

无铅四方相钙钛矿短周期超晶格压电效应机理研究

超晶格压电行为与内部正离子之间的内在联系尚缺乏相关的研究.本文基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理方法,研究了三种无铅四方相钙钛矿铁电超晶格(BaTiO_3/SrTiO_3,KNbO_3/KTaO_3和BaTiO_3/KNbO_3)中A,B位正离子对整体的极化和压电贡献.通过计算超晶格不同轴向应变条件下原子结构和Born有效电荷,获得了超晶格和各个正离子的极化值和压电系数.结果表明,在轴向压缩应变条件下(-0.15—0 A),无铅超晶格中的正离子位移D(A)和D(B)受到抑制,在拉应变时位移才显著增大,因此极化和压电行为不明显.在轴向拉伸应变作用下(0—0.15 A),无铅超晶格中各原子的极化贡献显著增大,特别是B位原子Ti,Nb和Ta的极化贡献使得总的极化强度也显著提高,并当拉应变达到一定值,超晶格才会出现明显的压电行为.无铅超晶格的极化和压电行为主要由B位正离子贡献.
