Abstract

The invention discloses a stacked ultrasonic transducer. The stacked ultrasonic transducer comprises a backing layer, a low-frequency piezoelectric layer, an insulating layer and a combined layer, allof which are sequentially arranged from bottom to top. The combined layer comprises a low-frequency matching layer, an intermediate-frequency piezoelectric layer, a high-frequency piezoelectric layerand a high-frequency matching layer. The low-frequency matching layer is arranged on the upper surface of the insulating layer. The upper surface of the low-frequency matching layer is etched downwards to the upper surface of the insulating layer to form a through cavity. An intermediate-frequency piezoelectric layer, a high-frequency piezoelectric layer and a high-frequency matching layer are sequentially arranged in the through cavity from bottom to top. According to the stacked ultrasonic transducer, each piezoelectric layer can be excited to generate ultrasonic waves with different frequencies, the ultrasonic waves generated by the piezoelectric layers are spatially stacked, and therefore single-pole ultrasonic pulses are generated, and the occupied area is reduced while the imaging quality is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of medical ultrasonic testing instruments, in particular to a stacked ultrasonic transducer. Background technique [0002] Ultrasonic transducers based on piezoelectric materials have many advantages such as mature technology, low cost and real-time imaging, so they are widely used in the field of medical ultrasonic testing. The traditional PZT-based single-frequency ultrasonic transducer can generally achieve 60% of the relative bandwidth of -6dB, and the length of its transmission waveform is roughly 2-3 periods. In order to increase the bandwidth of the ultrasonic transducer and improve the ultrasonic shape, the ultrasonic transducer based on the piezoelectric composite material has been developed, its -6dB relative bandwidth is close to 100%, and the length of the transmission waveform is within 2 cycles, to a greater extent Improve the quality of ultrasound images. In order to further improve the qual...
