Abstract

Single element transducers and linear arrays made from composite piezoelectric materials were characterized for application in medical ultrasonic imaging. The composite transducers showed a compact temporal response and high sensitivity over a broad frequency range. Prototype linear arrays with elements defined by an electrode pattern alone exhibited low acoustic cross talk between neighboring elements and overall performance equivalent to that of state of the art diced arrays.
