Aluminum nitride (AlN) is a piezoelectric semiconductor material used for optoelectronic devices, high-frequency acoustic filters, resonators, and piezoelectric transducers for structural health monitoring due to their wide band gap, chemical and mechanical stability, dielectric properties, and relatively large values of its elastic constants. On the other hand, lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics are also used in excitation and detection of acoustic waves in aircraft integrated structures for structural health monitoring and nondestructive testing. Prior to any potential device application it is necessary to characterize the mechanical properties of those materials. In addition to the polycrystalline materials AlN, PZT, and single cryst...
