A two-dimensional auxetic lattice structure was fabricated from a PZT piezoceramic. Tape casted and sintered sheets with a thickness of 530 mu m were laser cut into inverted honeycomb lattice structure with re-entrant cell geometry (theta = -25 degrees) and poling direction oriented perpendicular to the lattice plane. The in-plane strain response upon applying an uniaxial compression load as well as an electric field perpendicular to the lattice plane were analyzed by a 2D image data detection analysis. The auxetic lattice structure exhibits orthotropic deformation behavior with a negative in-plane Poisson's ratio of -2.05. Compared to PZT bulk material the piezoelectric auxetic lattice revealed a strain amplification by a factor of 30-70. Effective transversal coupling coefficients d(31)(al) of the PZT lattice exceeding 4 x 10(3) pm V-1 were determined which result in an effective hydrostatic coefficient d(h)(al) 66 times larger than that of bulk PZT.
