摘要
Piezoelectric materials perform mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion and have unique and enhanced properties, particularly in the thin film form. In this work, the nanomechanical properties of strontium-doped lead zirconate titanate thin films are investigated by nanoindentation. Finite element modeling of the nanoindentation process allows for a comparison of the simulated and experimentally measured load-displacement curves. New insights correlating the nanomechanical and piezoelectric properties of thin films have been obtained which will enable more efficient design of piezoelectric energy harvesting devices.
