An ultrasound transducer apparatus for shaping the ultrasound coverage field per application requirement in both the radiating and receiving mode of operation. Wave coverage field is shaped by forming at least one cut at designated location on the housing wall. A cut on the housing wall of the transducer pot-shaped structural body results into the reduction of wave intensity, either radiating or receiving, toward that direction where the cut is located.

Augmenting surface electrodes for piezoelectric workpieces together with the method for fabrication are disclosed for improving fabrication and operation reliability of the workpieces. A piezoelectric workpiece used for energy conversion between electrical and mechanical forms in a piezoelectric system comprises a body, a number of function electrodes, and at least an augmenting surface electrode. The body of piezoelectricity is used for implementing the energy conversion. The function electrodes are each fixedly attached to the surface of the body, and are connected in the electric circuit for implementing the energy conversion. At least one of the function electrodes has a shape with a contour of at least one acute angle. At least an augmenting surface electrode has a substantially elongated shape fixedly attached to the surface of the body proximate to the acute angle. Together, the augmenting surface electrode and the proximate function electrode thereof constitute a gross electrode that substantially cancels the acute angle when both are connected electrically to the same electric potential. The acute angle is cancelled during the polarization of electric dipoles of the body grain molecules so that the boundary region between different polarization orientation distribution regions can be smoothed. The reliability of the piezoelectric workpiece is improved both during the fabrication and during normal operation of the workpiece.

A method for fabricating organic thin-film transistors is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a mold and a flexible substrate, wherein the mold comprises microstructures for defining source/drain electrode patterns on the substrate and at least an opening for feeding a solution material; forming an adhesive layer on the flexible substrate such that the mold is attached to the flexible substrate via the adhesive layer; feeding a solution material for forming source/drain electrodes via the opening of the mold and curing the solution material so as to form source/drain electrodes; removing the mold and forming a semiconductor layer on the source/drain electrodes; forming an insulator layer on the semiconductor layer and on the source/drain electrodes; forming a gate electrode on the insulator layer; and forming a protective layer for covering the organic thin-film transistor. The channel length of the thin film transistor is determined by the resolution of the microstructures of the mold.

The invention advantageously provides an alert system and method for geographic or natural disasters that utilize a telecommunications network for monitoring geographic data in disaster-prone areas and accordingly issuing warnings against potential disasters to people inside the monitored area. An alert system according to a preferred embodiment of the invention comprises a telecommunications service network, one or more wireless sensor modules and a control center. The telecommunications network according to this particular embodiment includes service coverage over the monitored areas. The wireless sensor modules are installed to selected locations inside monitored areas. Each of the sensor modules further comprises at least one sensor for collecting geographic or geodetic data and a wireless communications unit for sending collected geographic data to the control center via the telecommunications network. The control center then receives and processes the monitored geographic or geodetic data sent by the wireless sensor modules for further algorithmic analysis. The control center accordingly issues alerts for imminent geographic or natural disasters if the processing of the geographic or geodetic data produces adverse results.
