Abstract:
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (CH2-CF2)n is a tough, flexible polymer readily available in the form of thin film which can be made piezoelectric by the temporary application of a high electric field. The areas of the film which become piezoelectric can be controlled to be the areas where metal electrodes are evaporated onto the film. The same electrodes and associated leads are subsequently used to detect the electric charge generated by the application of pressure to the active area. Such films may have applications in the measurement of occlusal forces. Many of the problems that might be encountered in an occlusal gauge have been addressed separately in other applications. For example, polymer transducers less than 100 μm thick have been developed and tested for measuring the nip pressure on an intaglio printing press. Piezoelectric polymer gauges have been successfully encased in a protective layer of another polymer to prevent the sharp edges of sand particles from breaking through the piezoelectric film. Transducer films with an array of active areas have been produced with electrical leads from each area so that the source of the signal can be traced. Electrode patterns have usually been established by evaporation of metal through a mask, but silk-screening a conductive ink has also been shown to be an effective means of defining which areas of the film are to be made piezoelectric. Finally, poly(vinylidene fluoride) has been shown to retain 80% of its initial activity after 1000 hours at 100°C, and it is unaffected by moisture. Therefore, if necessary, gauges to be used in dentistry could be subjected to steam sterilization for repeated use. The physical properties of such polymer films and examples of their use in pressure transducers are reviewed with the intent of stimulating interest in development of a system useful for measuring occlusal forces.

Abstract:
We report flexible thin-film lead zirconate titanate (PZT)-based ultrasonic transducers on polyimide substrates. The transducers are bar resonators designed to operate in the width extension mode. The active elements are 1 µm thick PZT films that were crystallized on Si substrates at 700 °C and transferred to 5 µm thick solution-cast polyimide via dissolution of an underlying release layer. Underwater pitch–catch testing between two neighboring 100 µm × 1000 µm elements showed a 0.2 mV signal at a 1.5 cm distance for a driving voltage of 5 V peak at 9.5 MHz. With the same excitation, a 33 kPa sound pressure output at a 6 mm distance and a 32% bandwidth at −6 dB were measured by hydrophone.

Abstract:
In any given media, the speed of sound is considerably slower than speed of light, and the exploration of the acoustic regime in the GHz range gives access to very short acoustic wavelengths. Short acoustic wavelengths is an intriguing path for high resolution live-cell imaging. At low frequencies, ultrasound has proved to be a valuable tool for the mechanical characterisation and imaging of biological tissues. There is much interest in using high frequency ultrasound to investigate single cells due to its mechanical contrast mechanism. Mechanical characterisation of cells has been performed by a number of techniques, such as atomic force microscopy, acoustic microscopy or Brillouin microscopy. Recently, Brillouin oscillations measurements on vegetal and mammal cells have been demonstrated in the GHz range. In this thesis, a method to extend this technique, from the previously reported single point measurements and line scans, into a high resolution acoustic imaging tool is presented. A novel approach based around a three-layered metal-dielectric-metal film is used as a transducer to launch acoustic waves into the cell being studied. The design of this transducer and imaging system is optimised to overcome the vulnerability of a cell to the exposure of laser light and heat without sacrificing the signal to noise ratio. The transducer substrate shields the cell from the laser radiation by detecting in transmission rather than reflection. It also generates acoustic waves efficiently by a careful selection of materials and wavelengths. Facilitates optical detection in transmission due to simplicity of arrangement and aids to dissipate heat away from the cell. The design of the transducers and instrumentation is discussed and Brillouin frequency images (two and three dimensions) on phantom, fixed and living cells are presented.

Abstract:
Thesis (S.M.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mechanical Engineering, 2012.
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 149-156).
The design and modelling framework for a piezoelectric micromachined ultrasonic transducer (PMUT) based on the piezoelectric thin film deposition of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is defined. Through high frequency vibration (1-16MHz) of a thin plate, the PMUT transmits and receives pressure pulses to construct medical ultrasound images as an alternative to bulk piezoelectric transducers currently in use. Existing transducers are difficult to fabricate and lack the small scale necessary for small form factor, high resolution 2D imaging arrays. From acoustic priniciples, the potential PMUT acoustic pressure output is determined and compared to a radiating rigid piston model. Acoustic pressure is shown to scale with the volumetric displacement rate, which is related to the plate deflection. A Green's function approach is then used to explicitly solve for the plate deflection of a bimorph and unimorph PMUT with an arbitrary number of circular or ring electrodes. The resulting solution is much simpler and more flexible than previously published solution techniques enabling the optimization of electrode configuration for large deflection and acoustic pressure. Additionally, the contribution of residual stress is examined; particularly its effects on bandwidth, sensitivity, and resonant frequency and an appropriate electrode coverage of the PMUT plate is suggested. Based on modelling, an initial PMUT design is proposed and is currently being fabricated.
