摘要

Increasing array transducer bandwidth (BW) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is a critical issue for producing a high-quality medical ultrasound image. However, array elements with small size tend to have poor sensitivity due to a much higher impedance compared with the electrical impedance of the transmitter and receiver circuit. Implementation of multilayer ceramic (MLC) is an effective way of reducing impedance, and thus, with a potential for improving SNR for an ultrasonic probe. In this work, we fabricated multilayer piezoelectric ceramic with a composition of 0.1Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.35Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.15Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.1PbZrO(3)-0.3PbTiO(3)-4mol% excess NiO (PNN-PZN-PMN-PZ-PT), by a roll to roll tape casting process and co-fired with 90Ag/10Pd electrode at a low temperature of 950 degrees C. Using five-layer MLC (5L-MLC) as obtained, we designed and demonstrated a 5 MHz 32-element array transducer for ultrasonic and photoacoustic imaging. The five-layer transducer element exhibited a BW of 87% at -6 dB, substantially higher than 62% for single-layer ceramic (SLC) element. In addition, the insertion loss was improved by 16.2 dB over the SLC element with an external impedance of $50Omega $ . Both the experimental results and theoretical analysis showed that our array transducer made of the PNN-PZN-PMN-PZ-PT MLC is promising for acquiring high-quality ultrasonic and photoacoustic images.
