Conclusions

An investigation of the dynamic piezoelectric modulus of single crystals of a pure piezoelectric material (bismuth germanate), a pyroelectric material (lithium germanate), and a ferroelectric material with rigidly fixed domains (lithium niobate) showed that all the above listed crystals can serve as a highly efficient working body of pressure pickups. Crystals of lithium niobate are distinguished by the highest stability; their industrial production has been perfected, and their behavior in shock waves has been rather completely investigated In [3] an investigation was made of the dynamic piezoelectric moduli for three sections of lithium niobate: -Z, Y, 36° -Y; in [26], an investigation was made of the mechanical and electrical reaction of lithium niobate to the action of a shock wave with an intensity exceeding the Hugoniot creep limit. The results set forth in the present article are in agreement with the data of [3, 26].

The maximal value of the dynamic piezoelectric modulus for the investigated crystals is that of bismuth germanate, i.e., 13×10−3 C/(m2·KPa), which is six times greater than the piezoelectric modulus of quartz.
