This research proposes an improved tunable piezoelectric harvester structure which is constructed by a cantilever base beam and piezoelectric elements working in d33 mode. Our previous work on tunable piezoelectric harvester structure showed a frequency variation ratio of 3.17% with piezoelectric elements working in d31mode coupling. In this work, by changing the working mode of the piezoelectric elements from d31 to d33 mode, the frequency variation ratio was shown to be much higher. Theoretical analysis of the improved structure was investigated and verified with simulations. The results showed that the d33 mode coupling surpasses the d31 mode coupling with a frequency variation ratio of 29.74%.

IntroductionIn recent years, a two-step electric field assisted diffusion or ion-exchange technique has been extensively studied for producing buried concentration profiles in glass [1,2,3], polymer [4,5], electrooptic and semiconducting [6,7] substrate materials to fabricate buried optical waveguide devices. The technique contains two separate diffusion processes and is quite complicated, cost and time consuming. In addition, theoretical analysis of the technique is too complicated to be used for calculating and tailoring concentration profiles. Many efforts have been made to pursue a one-step process for producing buried profiles. Very recently, a novel one-step technique [8] involving electric field assisted diffusion of silver ions into glass from molten AgNO3 bath with decaying silver concentration has been developed to produce buried Ag+ concentration profiles in glass substrate. The new technique is, from the practical operation point of view, relatively simple and is a significant improvement over the conventional two-step process.


Paramagnetic resonance methods have been used to investigate Ir-Ir exchange interactions in K 2 IrCl 6 and (NH 4 ) 2 IrCl 6 . Measurements are described of the resonance spectrum from nearest-neighbour pairs of Ir ions in semi-dilute mixed crystals where Pt is substituted for Ir. The results show that the isotropic p art of the Ir-Ir exchange, J / k , is antiferromagnetic and of magnitude 11.5 ± 1°K and 7.5 ± 1°K for the potassium and ammonium salts, respectively. There is also found to be an anisotropic part with rhombic symmetry and with magnitude of order 1 cm -1 . No lines attributable to next-nearest-neighbour pairs were found, and it is suggested that this interaction is small. The results are com pared briefly with the magnetic susceptibility experiments of Cooke et al . (part II) who find that the concentrated salts go antiferromagnetic in the liquid-helium temperature range, and also with the theoretical analysis of the superexchange mechanism given by Judd (part III).
