Abstract
A method is presented for determining the piezoelectric constants and the frequency-dependent dielectric properties of the polymers from a five-step algorithm based on analysis of air-loaded broadband impedance measurements. It is shown how to account for the frequency-dependent lossy properties of these films in an equivalent impedance circuit model and a modified Mason's model. Comparisons between the models and actual film transducers show excellent broadband simulation of both electrical input impedance and ultrasonic pulse-echo performance.
