Title:
PIEZOELECTRIC UNIT, PIEZOELECTRIC DEVICE, PIEZOELECTRIC DETERMINATION DEVICE, AND STATE DETERMINATION METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/002650
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A piezoelectric unit (1) is characterized by having a piezoelectric element for exciting a thickness-shear vibration, a first electrode provided to one side of the piezoelectric element, a second electrode and a third electrode electrically insulated from each other and provided to the reverse side of the piezoelectric element from the side to which the first electrode is provided, and a switch connected to the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode, the switch being capable of switching between a mass/viscoelasticity measurement mode for measuring the mass or viscoelasticity of a substance in contact with the piezoelectric element by exciting the piezoelectric element, and an electrical characteristic measurement mode for measuring electrical characteristics between the second electrode and the third electrode.
