摘要:
A piezoelectrically active conformal filler material is incorporated in a 1-3, 3-3 or 2-2 piezocomposite structure. The piezoelectrically active conformal filler material has a 0-3 structure and is made of fine piezoelectric ceramic particles surrounded by a conformal polymer matrix. Using such piezocomposite material, the reception and transmission sensitivity (efficiency) of a piezoelectric layer can be improved without any increase in the acoustic impedance of the final piezoelectric layer. The resulting piezocomposite material can be used to fabricate ultrasonic transducer arrays.
