The Dynamic Performance of Flexural Ultrasonic Transducers

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Flexural ultrasonic transducers are principally used as proximity sensors and for industrial metrology. Their operation relies on a piezoelectric ceramic to generate a flexing of a metallic membrane, which delivers the ultrasound signal.

Flexible ultrasonic transducers

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2006
Flexible ultrasonic transducers (UTs) consisting of a metal foil, a piezoelectric ceramic film, and a top electrode have been developed. The flexibility is realized owing to the porosity of piezoelectric film and the thinness of metal foil. In this paper, the stainless steel (SS), lead-zirconate-titanate (PZT)/PZT composite and silver paste were chosen
