Phase Transition Experimental and Theoretical Study of Micro Power Generator Supplying Source for CMOS Chip Based on...

We demonstrated both experimentally and in theory analysis and calculation that the tin-modified lead zirconate titanate nanoporous ferroelectric generator system can perform as a micro-power supplying source for CMOS chip. The ferroelectric ceramic phase transition under transverse shock wave compression can charge external storage capacitor. The nanoporous microstructure ferro-electric ceramic micro-pulsed-power system is capable of generating low output voltage pulses and supplying CMOS chip with micro power sources. We developed the methodology for theory analysis and experimental operation of the ferroelectric generator. Analysis of the porous ferroelectric ceramic material was carried out by X-ray diffractometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Microstructures and surface morphology of porous ferroelectric ceramics samples were examined by using scanning electron microscopy. The planar shock wave experiments were conducted on a compressed-gas gun. The experimental results were in good agreement with the theory analysis.
