UUVs are currently being designed to perform a multiplitude of tasks in ocean exploration and Naval warfighting. Many of these tasks require the use of active acoustic projectors, and many may require the UUV to operate independently for hours, days, or even weeks. In order for a UUV to be as versatile as possible, its active transmit system must be versatile as well, implying that broad acoustic bandwidths are a must. However, due to size and battery life limitations, this broadband system must also be compact and energy efficient. By virtue of their extraordinary material properties, ferroelectric single crystals are the ideal transduction material for developing such broadband systems. The effect of their high coupling factor on transmit systems shall be illustrated by showing the dramatic impact on amplifier size, power factor, and acoustic response that is possible using these materials. In particular, a transducer built with these materials can be well matched to the power amplifier, i.e., 80% or more of the amplifier power reaches the transducer, over decades of frequency. Measured results from several prototype single crystal transducers shall be presented to demonstrate that the theoretical gains are actually realizable in practical devices. [Work sponsored by DARPA.]
