Abstract: In this study, we propose a new piezoelectric measurement method using unimorph microcantilevers to evaluate precise values of direct and converse piezoelectric coefficients for piezoelectric microelectromechanical system applications. We fabricated unimorph microcantilevers comprising 3-μm-thick polycrystalline… read more here.
