Abstract
Piezoelectric semiconductors (PSs) have widespread applications in semiconductor devices due to the coexistence of piezoelectricity and semiconducting properties. It is very important to conduct a theoretical analysis of PS structures. However, the present of nonlinearity in the partial differential equations (PDEs) that describe those multi-field coupling mechanical behaviors of PSs poses a significant mathematical challenge when studying these PS structures. In this paper, we present a novel approach based on machine learning for solving multi-field coupling problems in PS structures. A physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) is constructed for predicting the multi-field coupling behaviors of PS rods with extensional deformation. By utilizing the proposed PINNs, we evaluate the multi-field coupling responses of a ZnO rod under static and dynamic axial forces. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed PINNs exhibit high accuracy in solving both static and dynamic problems associated with PS structures. It provides an effective approach to predicting the nonlinear multi-field coupling phenomena in PS structures.
