Benefits of CTS' PZT Composite

• Custom volume percent of epoxy
   
• Enhanced electromechanical coupling factors
   
• Lower cross-talk
   
• Increased acoustic sensitivity
   
• Broader bandwidth
   
• Improved conformity to the backing materials

Piezoelectric composite materials consist of a piezoelectric ceramic in a thermosetting epoxy matrix. CTS' piezoelectric composite materials offer clear advantages over traditional monolithic piezoelectric ceramics, which are used by the medical ultrasound and non-destructive testing (NDT) industries to improve imaging capabilities.

CTS' piezoelectric composite materials are available in any material formulation and can be prepared as a bare element or with a wide variety of sputtered electrodes.  The piezoelectric composites are available in thicknesses as thin as 0.005 inches.  CTS also produces a wide range of surface finishes compatible with next-level assembly.   Contact us for further details or inquiries.
