摘　　要：We study the bending of a two-layer piezoelectric semiconductor plate(bimorph).The macroscopic theory of piezoelectric semiconductors is employed.A set of two-dimensional plate equations is derived from the three-dimensional equations.The plate equations exhibit direct couplings among bending,electric polarization along the plate thickness,and mobile charges.In the case of pure bending,a combination of physical and geometric parameters is identified which characterizes the strength of the interaction between the mechanical load and the distribution of mobile charges.In the bending of a rectangular plate under a distributed transverse mechanical load,it is shown that mobile charge distributions and potential barriers/wells develop in the plate.When the mechanical load is local and self-balanced,the induced carrier distributions and potential barriers/wells are also localized near the loading area.The results are fundamentally useful for mechanically manipulating mobile charges in piezoelectric semiconductor devices.
