Processing of fine-scale piezoelectric ceramic/polymer composites for transducer applications

Abstract
In the past decade, piezoelectric ceramic/polymer composites have been used in transducers for a variety of applications. These applications include hydrophones, biomedical imaging, non-destructive testing, and air imaging. Recently, much attention has been give to fine-scale composites. Composites allow higher operating frequencies, and thus increased transducer resolution. In this review, several methods for processing fine-scale piezoelectric ceramic/polymer composites are discussed.
