Using PZT powder in diameter small than 0.5 μm.
Pressure difference between the destination room and powder room:150mmHg ~ 400mmHg
The deposition rate is 0.1 μm/min on a 50x70 mm2 area.
Could be deposited on Si, SiO2, SU-8, glass, polyimide, ITO, Cu, Pt, Au, and Al , etc.
The process is conducted in room temperature.
Annealed in 550~650°C furnance after the jet sprayed process.

The cantilever structure verify that the material properties of jet spray deposited PZT is closed bulk PZT material, and thus the behavior can be precisely simulated and predicted by ANSYS.
The design and fabrication flow of micro piezoelectric devices are as the right figure.
Application for now: Micro power harvesting device and micro piezoelectric transformer, and many other devices can be tried in the future

Energy Harvesting from Ambient Random VibrationsEnergy Harvesting from Ambient Random Vibrations
• It is an utmost goal to power wireless sensor nodes from energy scavenged from the ambient environment.
• The energy harvesting from ambient vibration with piezoelectric cantilever beam structure has been proven to be one of the best approach toscavenge energy from ambient vibrations due to the high energy density nature of piezoelectric materials.
• The state of the art vibration energy harvesting devices can generate power in milliwatts level.

Theoretical AnalysisTheoretical Analysis• The mechanical and electrical behavior around the 1st resonant
frequency in bending direction which power harvesting devices usually adopted can be expressed in equivalent circuit model.
– The transformer in the circuit model denotes a mechanical to electrical energy transformation.
– The voltage source E1 denotes a external force– The RmLmCm in mechanical branch denotes equivalent circuit parameters in the
mechanical oscillation. – The C0 in the electrical side denotes the static capacitance of parallel electrode plates
which is shunted with the external electrical load.
• The experimental setup is composed of a piezoelectric cantilever beam clamped at one end fixed on a vibrating shaker.
• The piezoelectric cantilever beam used here is bimorph type.– The upper panel was used in the frequency tuning purpose.– The lower piezoelectric panel on the beam is then used to harvest energy.

Results of Network Analysis Results of Network Analysis • The two extreme conditions short circuit and open circuit conditions, the
resonant frequencies are 91.5Hz and 94.5Hz respectively. • The 3Hz range is the tunable bandwidth on this system.
– Resonant frequency of the system can be changing in this range by switching in different capacitive loads.

Results of Random Frequency ExcitationResults of Random Frequency Excitation• The device excited under random frequency from 80Hz to 115Hz.
– The average harvesting output power is about 1.53mW with the tuning resonant frequency system turned off and 1.95mW with the resonant frequency tuning system turned on.
– The average harvesting output power increases about 27.4% with the real-time resonant frequency tuning system under random excitation.
