摘要：

An ultrasonic transducer with a circular aperture has been designed and fabricated for the development of a harmonic imaging system with high sensitivity. The transducer consists of two piezoelectric elements; one is made from Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) ceramics for transmitting a finite-amplitude ultrasonic pulse, and the other is made from a KNbO3 (KN) piezoelectric single crystal for receiving second harmonic signals generated in a nonlinear medium. They are arranged coaxially. Using this transducer, acoustic characteristics were measured and the observation of sponge phantom images was performed. Compared with other transducers with PZT and PbTiO3 (PT) ceramics, we have confirmed that higher sensitivity and stronger correlation between the sensitivity and figure-of-merit can be obtained. Additionally, the third harmonic detection has been demonstrated.
