Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3 or PZT) ceramics have been employed extensively in sensors and actuators, as well as smart systems. The dynamic hysteresis characteristics have become important consideration in these applications. Therefore, we performed experiments on soft and hard PZT bulk...
