This volume deals with the physics and electroelasticity relations of information transducers, i.e. sensors and actuators based on polar dielectrics and semiconductors. The issues are viewed in terms of solid state physics and fracture mechanics. The book contains methods for calculating electrical fields, currents, temperature, mechanical stress-strain state of piezoelectric devices, which are used in measurement equipment and automatic control systems.
The book proposes optimal micro-electromechanical and piezoelectronic devices on the basis of computer calculation and experimental data.
It will be particularly useful to engineers in electronics, automatics and computing, as well as undergraduates and graduates.

Zielgruppe

All those interested in automatics, piezoelectronics, photooptical engineering, measurement techniques, microelectromechanical structures, as well as specialists in the field of solid-state electronics, physical science of materials and physics of strength.
