Ultrasonic transducers send and receive waves for many types of sensing. They convert energy into high frequency sound waves in the ultrasonic range. These sound waves are then focused on a target and ...

Today, a vast number of micro-manufactured sensors, actuators and components vibrate at frequencies in the high MHz range. Some examples of these high-frequency vibrating systems include surface ...

The notion of a phased array was initially articulated by Nobel Prize recipient K. F. Braun. Phased arrays have subsequently evolved into a formidable mechanism for wave manipulation. This assertion ...

A research team has developed the world's first high-performance photoacoustic endoscopy based on a transparent ultrasonic transducer. Their findings were recently published in the journal Science ...

Composite and lead-free piezoelectric materials offer new design options for ultrasonic transducers, with tailored properties ...

Before humans discovered ultrasound for a variety of medical, technical and military applications, nature had perfected it over millions of years for navigation under and above water. Dolphins and ...
