Piezoelectric ceramic sensors are primarily composed of piezoelectric crystals, such as lead zirconatetitanate (PZT), which exhibit the piezoelectric effect. This effect refers to the generation of an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress or pressure. When a force is applied to the sensor, the crystals deform, resulting in the displacement of positive and negative charges within the material. This charge separation creates an electric field and generates a measurable voltage output proportional to the applied force. By detecting and analyzing this voltage output, precise measurements of various physical quantities can be obtained.
