Abstract
Arrays of piezoelectric pressure sensors have been fabricated and tested. The sensor structure consists of a sol-gel derived PZT layer sandwiched between two platinum electrode layers, deposited on an oxidized silicon substrate. The devices were successfully used to simultaneously perform point-measurements of the amplitude, speed and direction of shock waves propagating in a shock tube.
