Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of modified nanomaterials, and in particular relates to a high-stability piezoelectric nanomaterial for lithium tantalate wafers and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As one of the core materials in modern science and technology, piezoelectric materials play an irreplaceable role in the fields of sensors, actuators, energy converters and ultrasonic equipment. Its core characteristic is the ability to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. This unique physical property gives it broad application prospects in the fields of industry, medical care and consumer electronics. With the rapid development of nanotechnology, piezoelectric nanomaterials have gradually become a research hotspot due to their special size effect and high performance. Compared with traditional bulk materials, nanoscale piezoelectric materials can significantly improve the response speed, sensitivity and energy conversion efficiency. However, the preparation and performance optimization of nanomaterials still face many challenges, especially in terms of high stability, durability and environmental adaptability.
[0003] Lithium tantalate is an important piezoelectric material that has attracted much attention due to its high Curie temperature (above about 600°C), excellent piezoelectric properties and chemical stability. Compared with other common piezoelectric materials such as quartz or lead zirconate titanate, lithium tantalate shows significant advantages in high-temperature and high-frequency applications, such as its widespread use in surface acoustic wave devices and optical components. However, with the complexity of application scenarios, such as extreme environments such as aerospace and deep-sea exploration, higher requirements are placed on the performance of piezoelectric materials. Traditional lithium tantalate wafers may experience performance degradation under high temperature, humidity or strong corrosive conditions, such as reduced piezoelectric coefficient or decreased structural stability, which limits their application in harsh environments. Therefore, the development of a high-stability piezoelectric nanomaterial for lithium tantalate wafers and its preparation method is not only of great scientific significance, but also of practical value in promoting the advancement of related technologies.
[0004] In the prior art, the preparation of lithium tantalate wafers mainly relies on traditional crystal growth methods, such as the Chai method and the Bridgman method. These methods can grow high-quality lithium tantalate single crystals by precisely controlling the melt temperature and the crystal pulling rate, meeting the needs of most conventional applications. For example, the Chai method prepares crystals with low defect density and high purity by slowly pulling out single crystals after melting the raw materials. However, these traditional methods have some inherent defects: the Chai method and the Bridgman method require complex equipment and high-purity raw materials, the growth process takes a long time (usually several days to several weeks), and the energy consumption is high, resulting in high production costs. The wafers prepared by traditional methods are mostly micron- or millimeter-level thicknesses, and nanoscale structures cannot be directly formed, which limits their application in the field of nanotechnology. Traditional lithium tantalate wafers are prone to oxidation, corrosion, or increased lattice defects under high temperatures or harsh environments, resulting in a decrease in piezoelectric properties and mechanical strength.
[0005] In order to overcome these problems, researchers have begun to explore the introduction of nanotechnology into the preparation and optimization of piezoelectric materials in recent years. Nanomaterials can significantly improve the physical and chemical properties of materials due to their high specific surface area and quantum size effect. For example, the introduction of nanoparticles, nanowires or nanofilm structures can improve the sensitivity and response speed of piezoelectric materials while reducing the amount of materials used. However, the preparation and stability control of nanomaterials is still a technical difficulty. Especially for lithium tantalate, how to achieve the stability of the nanostructure while maintaining its excellent piezoelectric properties is the focus and difficulty of current research. In the prior art, there are some methods that have attempted to improve the performance of piezoelectric nanomaterials. For example, lithium tantalate nanoparticles or films are prepared by chemical vapor deposition or sol-gel method, which can achieve the control of nanostructure to a certain extent. Studies have shown that after reducing the particle size to the nanoscale, the piezoelectric response and thermal conductivity of lithium tantalate are improved. However, the nanomaterials prepared by these methods are prone to agglomeration or oxidation in high temperature or humid environments, resulting in unstable performance. In addition, the morphology and size control of the nanostructure have a significant impact on the final performance. For example, nanoparticles with too small a particle size are prone to agglomeration due to their high surface energy, while uneven size may lead to local stress concentration and reduce the durability of the material.
[0006] In response to these problems, it is particularly urgent to develop a high-stability piezoelectric nanomaterial and its preparation method specifically for lithium tantalate wafers. The key is to achieve precise control of the nanostructure through innovative preparation processes, while improving the stability and durability of the material in extreme environments. For example, the size and morphology of nanoparticles can be regulated by optimizing synthesis conditions (such as reaction temperature, pressure, and precursor ratio); the uniformity and stability of nanomaterials in the matrix can be improved by introducing new dispersion technologies or composite structures. These improvements can not only improve the piezoelectric properties of lithium tantalate wafers, but also provide new possibilities for their application in aerospace, deep-sea exploration and other fields.

[0026] Excellent corrosion and moisture resistance: Corrosion resistance: SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 The chemical inertness of the ceramic layer enables it to remain stable in corrosive environments such as strong acids and alkalis, significantly extending the service life of the material, making it particularly suitable for acoustic devices and sensors in deep-sea exploration. Moisture resistance: The use of an organic silicon modifier (γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) improves the hydrophobicity of the material, reduces the effect of moisture on piezoelectric properties, and ensures the stable operation of the material in a high humidity environment.
[0027] Excellent structural stability: Multi-level structural design: The present invention adopts a core layer (lithium tantalate nano-matrix), an intermediate layer (rare earth doped lithium tantalate nano-matrix and nano-composite material) and an outer layer (SiO 2 -Al 2 O 3 The collaborative design of the ceramic layer ensures the structural integrity and functional stability of the material under extreme conditions. Fine process control: Through advanced processes such as hydrothermal reaction, ultrasonic dispersion, ball milling, atomic layer deposition and step sintering, the uniformity and density of the material structure are achieved, effectively avoiding the common problems of agglomeration, defects and inhomogeneity in traditional preparation methods.
