The converse longitudinal piezoelectric responses of PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3/SrTiO3/Si heterostructures have been studied for continuous films and for islands patterned by focused ion beam milling (typical dimension is 1x1x1 mu m). The intrinsic piezoelectric response of the island with an immobile polydomain structure is modeled using finite element analysis. The difference between the results of experimental measurement and modeling is explained by an extrinsic contribution to the piezoresponse from 90 degrees domain movement. The contribution of 90 degrees domain movement to the total piezoresponse is shown to be greatly enhanced in the patterned islands, and leads to an effective piezoelectric coefficient (similar to 400 pm/V) which is five times larger than the theoretical bulk single domain value.
