Analysis of Piezoelectric Devices

Appendix 2: Electroelastic Material Constants

Material constants for a few common piezoelectrics are summarized below. Numerical results given in this book are calculated from these constants.

Permittivity of free space ? 0=8.854 10 ?12F/m.

Polarized Ceramics

The material matrices for PZT-5H are [130]


For PZT-5H, an equivalent set of material constants are [130]


When poling is along other directions, the material matrices can be obtained by tensor transformations. For PZT-5H, when poling is along the x 1-axis, we have


When poling is along the x 2-axis,


For PZT-G1195
