    摘要: A method of fabricating a transducer includes embedding signal flexes and ground-return flexes inside a backing block. The method includes forming stack configurations with a height in elevation and a width perpendicular to the height. The forming includes: dicing a piezoelectric layer in the elevation into rows (separating the piezoelectric layer into portions); defining a beam pattern for the transducer by aligning the portions on the backing block; and forming gaps in-between each piezoelectric layer portion and each adjacently aligned piezoelectric layer portion. The method includes forming stacks by bonding one or more matching layers to the piezoelectric layer portions by utilizing a conductive surface of a first matching layer of the one or more matching layers. The method also includes forming cavities in the one or more matching layers in elevation, dicing the stacks along an elevation direction into multiple elements, and filling the cavities with a material.

    摘要: A transducer comprising a transducer element including a plate with a through-hole and a collar projecting from the plate and defining an interior cavity in communication with the through-hole. A piezoelectric bender includes at least first and second wafer layers stacked together. The bender is coupled to a peripheral end face of the collar. The first and/or second piezoelectric wafer layers bend at a resonant frequency and generate ultrasonic waves that flow through the collar interior cavity and the plate through-hole and create an in-air pressure pattern and acoustic field at a location spaced from the transducer. A plurality of transducers may be made by providing a monolithic transducer element structure including a plurality of the transducer elements formed thereon, coupling either a plurality of benders or a monolithic bender to the plurality of transducer elements, and then cutting the monolithic transducer element structure to define a plurality of individual transducers.

    摘要: The structure of a mother piezoelectric element allows a polarization process to be performed on the mother body before the individual piezoelectric elements are cut from the mother piezoelectric element. The mother piezoelectric element includes a plurality of first internal electrodes which are provided on at least one first surface and a plurality of second internal electrodes which are provided on at least one second surface. Each of the first and second internal electrodes is led out to any of first to fourth side surfaces of a mother piezoelectric body. The plurality of first internal electrodes are electrically connected to each other on a first surface and the plurality of second internal electrodes are electrical connected to each other on a second surface. All the first internal electrodes in the mother piezoelectric body are electrically connected to each other, and all the second internal electrodes in the mother piezoelectric body are electrically connected to each other.
