This paper describes output voltage characteristic and output power characteristic of the metal-core piezoelectric ceramic fiber/aluminum composite. As the metal-core piezoelectric fiber is very fragile, the interphase forming/bonding (IF/B) method proposed by Asanuma was used for embedding it in an aluminum matrix without fracturing it. In this study, thin patch type devices developed by using the IF/B method were evaluated with the oscillation test equipment. As the results, 1) the output voltages from the device were found to be proportional to their strains, 2) the output power generated by the specimen increases with increasing the square of its strain.
