Abstract

Piezoelectric material-based devices have garnered considerable attention from scientists and engineers due to their unique physical characteristics, resulting in numerous intriguing and practical applications. Among these, flexural-mode piezoelectric resonators (FMPRs) are progressively gaining prominence due to their compact, precise, and efficient performance in diverse applications. FMPRs, resonators that utilize one- or two-dimensional piezoelectric materials as their resonant structure, vibrate in a flexural mode. The resonant properties of the resonator directly influence its performance, making in-depth research into the resonant characteristics of FMPRs practically significant for optimizing their design and enhancing their performance. With the swift advancement of micro-nano electronic technology, the application range of FMPRs continues to broaden. These resonators, representing a domain of piezoelectric material application in micro-nanoelectromechanical systems, have found extensive use in the field of physical sensing and are starting to be used in micropower systems and biomedicine. This paper reviews the structure, working principle, resonance characteristics, applications, and future prospects of FMPRs.
