    University essay from KTH/Hälsoinformatik och logistik

    Author : Simon Mauritz; [2023]
    Keywords : Structural health monitoring SHM ; damage detection; Lamb waves; piezoelectric PZT ; printed circuit board PCB ; circuit simulation; Strukturell hälsoövervakning SHM ; skadedetektering; Lambvågor; piezoelektrisk PZT ; printed circuit board PCB ; kretssimulering;

    Abstract : Structural health monitoring (SHM) is damage detection strategy for aerospace, civiland mechanical infrastructure. This project tries to show that Lamb waves, that are being generated and sensed with piezoelectric transducers, can be used for damage detection in a SHM system. READ MORE

  3. 2. Enhancing Sensing in Nanoscale: Investigation of Smart Nanomechanical Cantilever Array

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Hiruy Michael Weldegiorgish; [2022]
    Keywords : Cantilever; AFM; Biosensor; Piezoresistive sensor; Piezoelectric actuator; Kantilever; AFM; Biosensor; Piezo -resistorer; Piezo-elektiska pådrivare;

    Abstract : In this report, a novel smart nanocantilever with self-deflection sensor using embedded piezo-resistor and self-actuation using integrated piezo-electric actuator is proposed, designed and simulated to enable highly sensitive label free biosensor and ultra-short cantilever probe for AFM applications. The smart nanocantilever comprises of a triangular Si3N4 nanocantilever (10µm long, 400nm width and 100nm thickness) connected to a multi-layer support structure (Si3N4 (100nm)/PZT (100nm)) having n-type silicon piezo resistor (7µm long ,2µm width and 20nm thickness) embedded in the Si3N4 layer in both the support structure and nanocantilever.

  4. 3. Preparation and Characteristics of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 based Lead-Free thin films by Pulsed Laser Deposition

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Ge Jiang; [2018]
    Keywords : PLD method; piezoelectric thin film; electrical properties; PLD-metoden; piezoelektrisk tunnfilm; elektriska egenskaper;

    Abstract : Lead-based piezoelectric materials, such as PbZrxTi1-xO3 (PZT), have attracted considerable attention and have been widely used in actuators, sensors and transducers due to their excellent electric properties. However, considering the toxicity of lead and its oxides, environmentally friendly lead-free piezoelectric materials are attracting more attention as potential replacements for PZT. READ MORE
