The Ninth U.S. - Japan Seminar on Dielectric and Piezoelectric Ceramics. Program and Evaluations
Abstract
The Ninth U.S.-Japan Seminar on Dielectric and Piezoelectric Ceramics was held on Okinawa, Japan, through November 2-5, 1999. The local organization was from the Science University of Tokyo and the Tokyo Institute of Technology. The total number of papers was 106: 69 Japanese and 37 U.S.; 40% of the papers were from industry. The principal technical topics were: (1) Piezoelectric Ceramics (bulk), (2) Multilayer Capacitors, and (3) Thin Film Dielectrics. The emphasis on multilayer capacitors was on base metal electrodes (B ME) with ultra thin layers (<3 microns) and the search for non-PbO based piezoelectrics a major thrust area in Japan. Novel pyrochlore and quantum ferroelectric materials and improved understanding of polarization fatigue in thin films were highlighted.
