PIEZO-EFFECT TRANSISTOR DEVICE AND APPLICATIONS

摘要

A piezo-effect transistor (PET) device includes a piezoelectric (PE) material disposed between first and second electrodes; and a piezoresistive (PR) material disposed between the second electrode and a third electrode, wherein the first electrode comprises a gate terminal, the second electrode comprises a common terminal, and the third electrode comprises an output terminal such that an electrical resistance of the PR material is dependent upon an applied voltage across the PE material by way of an applied pressure to the PR material by the PE material.
