THE ACCELEROMETER UTILIZING THE TRANSVERSE VIBRATION MODE OF LGT PIEZOELECTRIC CRYSTAL
A transverse-vibration-mode piezoelectric accelerometer using La3Ga5.5Ta0.5O14 (LGT) single crystal was designed and fabricated for potential high temperature sensing applications.Dynamic modeling of the accelerometer based on the transverse-vibration-mode of LGT crystal was presented first, followed by crystal cut preparation, sensor design and assembly,experimental setup establishment and sensing test.The prototype of transverse-vibration-mode piezoelectric accelerometer was tested in the temperature range of 20℃~350℃ under 160Hz.The average sensitivity of the prototype was evaluated to be 3.3 pC/g over the tested temperature range and the linearity reached 1.2%.This work might supply an approach for design and fabrication of new piezoelectric accelerometers using the transverse-vibration-mode of piezoelectric crystal materials.
