Abstract:
     A ultrasonic transducer using such a piezoelectric composite that a number of piezoelectric poles made of piezoelectric ceramics are arranged in a plate-like polymer matrix perpendicular to the plate surface. The volume ratio of the piezoelectric poles is set in a range of 0.15-0.75 and a spacing between every adjacent piezoelectric poles is set smaller than the thickness of the polymer plate, thereby resulting in a transducer which has higher sensitivity than the conventional one using a homogeneous piezoelectric ceramic plate.
