Piezoelectric ultrasonic transducers play a critical role in modern sensing and actuation by converting electrical signals into high‐frequency mechanical vibrations and vice versa. Recent advances ...

How does a piezoelectric transducer (actuator) work? Modern Piezo actuators are based on thin piezoceramic layers manufactured in a co-fired process to form a monolithic unit. They are also called ...

Ultrasonic sensor transducers work well in medical applications such as patient monitoring, flow measurement and air bubble detection used in infusion systems, pharmaceutic devices or spirometry.

To increase the accessibility of piezoelectric transducers and actuators for OEM designers, manufacturers may package these devices inside a protective arrangement of flexures. This approach offers a ...

The increasing miniaturization and sophistication of electronic products, ranging from consumer media devices to medical diagnostic tools to defense-related sonar applications, presents a bounty of ...

Some cool-mist humidifiers work by flinging water at a vaporizer, but our favorite kind uses a piezoelectric transducer. These work by using high-frequency sound waves to pound the surface of the ...

This unique dual harvesting arrangement, which simultaneously harvests energy from magnetic fields and ultrasound sources, can provide more power than either one alone—at no cost. Why dual-source ...
