Abstract

Using relaxor ferroelectric single crystals PMNT as piezoelectric phase and epoxy resin as a non-piezoelectric phase material, the piezoelectric composite is fabricated with the cutting - filling method. Using the same micro-structure parameters and the same process, the piezoelectric composite is prepared with the conventional piezoelectric ceramic PZT5 as piezoelectric phase material. The transducer array is respectively assembled with the PMNT /epoxy composites and PZT5/epoxy piezoelectric composite materials. Experimental results show that the relaxor ferroelectric single crystals PMNT / epoxy composite transducer array has higher sensitivity and less resonant impedance than PZT5/epoxy piezoelectric composite transducer array.
