Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)
Electrical partial discharges were studied in different piezoelectric ceramics. Epoxy material with micro sized cavities was also tested and compared to the piezoelectric ceramics. It is found that compared to epoxy, partial discharge (PD) occurs at relatively lower electric fields for piezoelectric ceramics. The PD inception voltage was found to be lower for materials with higher relative permittivity. This indicates that the intensification of the electric field within the defects is the main cause for the differences in inception field observed for epoxy compared to piezoelectric ceramics. Furthermore, phase resolved PD pattern analysis was carried out for all materials at elevated electric fields. A broad distribution of the discharge event was observed for both epoxy and hard PZT samples, whereas for soft PZT discharge occurs concentrated at electric fields slightly above the coercive field. This intensification of PDs close to the coercive field suggests that PDs may be enhanced due to an increase of the internal field and electron emission rate induced by the domain switching process.
