研究目的
Developing CaBi4Ti4O15 (CBiT)-based lead-free sol–gel composites for high-temperature ultrasonic transducer application.
研究成果
The study successfully demonstrated the potential of CBiT-based lead-free sol–gel composites for high-temperature ultrasonic transducer application. CBiT/BiT showed superior sensitivity compared to CBiT/BST and CBiT/PZT, despite requiring a higher poling temperature. Further research is recommended to optimize the fabrication process.
研究不足
The study notes the poor film quality of CBiT/BST as a possible cause for its lower sensitivity and suggests that process parameter optimization could improve it. Additionally, the poling difficulty of CBiT/BiT due to the low dielectric constant of BiT is mentioned as a limitation.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the development of CBiT-based lead-free sol–gel composites using BST and BiT sol–gel solutions for high-temperature ultrasonic transducer application. The composites were fabricated on titanium substrates using a sol–gel spray technique.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
CBiT powders and BST and BiT sol–gel solutions were prepared. The CBiT powders were custom fabricated, and the BST and BiT sol–gel solutions were prepared according to specific recipes.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The study used a sol–gel spray technique for film fabrication, a ZJ-3B piezo d33 meter for piezoelectric constant measurement, and an electrical furnace for high-temperature testing.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The mixtures of CBiT powders and each sol–gel solution were ball-milled, sprayed on titanium substrates, dried, and fired. Poling was performed by corona discharge at high temperatures, and top electrodes were fabricated.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Ultrasonic responses in the pulse–echo mode were recorded at various temperatures, and the sensitivity and SNR were calculated to evaluate performance.
