Abstract

A piezoelectric and/or pyroelectric composite solid hybrid material, includes: a solid dielectric matrix, a filler of at least one inorganic piezoelectric and/or pyroelectric material, wherein the filler includes filiform nanoparticles distributed throughout the volume of the solid dielectric matrix with an amount by volume of less than 50%, and in that the main directions of elongation of the filiform nanoparticles of the inorganic filler distributed in the dielectric matrix have a substantially isotropic distribution in the solid dielectric matrix. Also described is method for manufacturing and using such a hybrid material for producing structural parts and supported films deposited on the surface of such a substrate for: detecting mechanical stress by direct piezoelectric effect; detecting temperature variations by direct pyroelectric effect; creating a mechanical wave by reverse piezoelectric effect in a flexible audio device, in a de-icing device or in a mechanical anti-fouling device; and manufacturing a soundproof material.
