ABSTRACTFerroelectric thin films of the lead zirconate titanate family have been integrated with silicon-based micromachined structures in the fabrication of microelectromechanical devices. Sol-gel deposition techniques have been applied in the formation of ferroelectric thin films with high piezoelectric and pyroelectric coefficients for physical forces sensors and infrared detectors, respectively. Knowledge of both electrical and mechanical properties is important in realizing microelectromechanical devices with predictable performance. This pape reports piezoelectric coefficient, pyroelectric coefficient, dielectric constant, and Young's modulus for lead zirconate titanate and lead titanate thin films.
