Abstract
Textured ceramic fibers were fabricated from the tungsten-bronze-type piezoelectric (KSr2Nb5O15) . Development of crystallographic texture was evaluated through rocking curve analysis and a texture with Lotgering factor of 0.97 was achieved. 1-3 piezocomposites were prepared from the textured fibers and their electrical properties were evaluated. Highly enhanced properties that are 2 to 3 times higher than the random case were observed with increasing texture fraction with Pr and d33 reaching 20 μC/cm2 and 75 pC/N, respectively.
