Journal ArticleDOI
Monomorph actuators using semiconductive ferroelectrics
Kenji Uchino,Mikihiko Yoshizaki,Kiyoshi Kasai,Hiroshi Yamamura,Sakai Naomichi,Hiroshi Asakura +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a bending actuator based on a single plate of semiconductive piezoelectric ceramics is proposed, where the principle of bending originates from the nonuniform distribution of the electric field caused by the semiconductor-metal electrode contact.
Journal ArticleDOI
New monolithic actuators, 'monomorphs', using semiconductive ferroelectrics.
Kenji Uchino,Mikihiko Yoshizaki,Kiyoshi Kasai,Hiroshi Yamamura,Sakai Naomichi,Hiroshi Asakura +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-plate actuator capable of bending equivalently to a bimorph was proposed using semiconductive ferroelectric ceramics, which is a simple structure named as a "monomorph" as compared with a multi-stacked type in the bimomorph.
Journal ArticleDOI
Humidity sensitive actuator
TL;DR: In this article, a proton conductivity model is proposed to describe the humidity sensitive characteristics of a porosity-doped PZT "Monomorph" actuator, which is a new type of actuator composed of a single ceramic plate driven in a bending mode similar to the Bimorph.
