Piezoelectric Dimensions

hi!

I am doing project on piezoelectric energy harvesting which is a cantilever structure. I have some doubts related to my project. I designed cantilever structure having three layers substrate (SiC), piezo (ZnO) and electrode (Al). My doubt is that when piezoelectric layer thickness is increasing, generated electric potential is decreasing. But I saw some papers electric potential is directly proportional to thickness of piezoelectric. Please anyone share the information regarding this topic.

Thanks.
