Abstract
This invention relates to novel oriented piezoelectric ceramic and ceramic/polymer composites. More particularly, it provides a novel piezoelectric composite design wherein the ceramic piezoelectric phase is oriented at an angle with respect to the direction of applied stress, thus giving improved electromechanical properties.
