Abstract

An object is to provide an organic piezoelectric film with a high level of piezoelectricity, a high level of transparency, and a low level of retardation. The organic piezoelectric film of the present disclosure has a total light transmittance of 90% or more, an internal haze value of 0.2%/μm or less per unit film thickness or an internal haze value of 4% or less, piezoelectric constant d 33 of 13 pC/N or more, and a retardation within the range of 0.01 to 10 nm/μm per unit film thickness or a retardation within the range of 0.1 to 900 nm.

Claims (20)

1 . An organic piezoelectric film, having

a total light transmittance of 90% or more,

an internal haze value of 0.2%/μm or less per unit film thickness,

a piezoelectric constant d 33 of 14 pC/N or more,

a retardation within the range of 0.01 to 10 nm/μm per unit film thickness, and

a film thickness of 1 to 1000 μm.

2 . An organic piezoelectric film having

a total light transmittance of 90% or more,

an internal haze value of 4% or less,

a piezoelectric constant d 33 of 14 pC/N or more,

a retardation within the range of 0.1 to 900 nm, and

a film thickness of 1 to 1000 μm.

3 . The organic piezoelectric film according to claim 1 , comprising a vinylidene fluoride-based copolymer film.

4 . The organic piezoelectric film according to claim 3 , wherein the vinylidene fluoride-based copolymer is at least one member selected from the group consisting of vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene copolymers and vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene copolymers.

5 . The organic piezoelectric film according to claim 3 , wherein the vinylidene fluoride-based copolymer is a vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene copolymer.

6 . The organic piezoelectric film according to claim 3 , wherein the proportion of vinylidene fluoride in the vinylidene fluoride-based copolymer is within the range of 60 to 85 mol %.

7 . The organic piezoelectric film according to claim 1 , for use in one or more members selected from the group consisting of sensors, actuators, touch panels, haptic devices, vibration-powered generators, speakers, and microphones.

8 . A piezoelectric material that is a laminate, the piezoelectric material comprising:

the organic piezoelectric film of claim 1 , and

an electrode provided on at least one surface of the organic piezoelectric film.
