Abstract :
The preparation and properties of thick (30-200 μm) polycrystalline hard PZT films have been studied. The layers were deposited on Al2O3 substrates by spin-on and sintered at temperatures near 1050°C. Natural sintering or RTA are used. The field induced displacements of the films are measured by LDV. It is shown that the permittivity and the piezoelectric coefficient d 33 depend on the film thickness. A simple interface layer model is presented to explain such a behaviour. The best films, obtained by RTA at 1150°C, have a permittivity and a d33 value more than one third of the bulk ceramic
