The PZT matching layer redistributes the frequency spectrum of an original broadband ultrasonic probe, and acts as a frequency filter without reducing the wave amplitude. These behaviors are contributed to electromechanical and mechanical properties at the PZT matching layer, and are investigated in this study by a series of experiments on PZT matching plates with different electromechanical properties and polarization and surface charge conditions. Traditional passive matching layers, such as ceramic-polymer composites, are also studied. Three different ceramic-epoxy composite are developed and their impedance properties studied. Among the three, the zirconium oxide-epoxy composite exhibits a tolerable attenuation level and an optimum impedance value. It is then integrated on to a home-made HIFU transducer to test its effectiveness. The beam profile of the matched HIFU transducer is characterized by a hydrophone, and an in-vivo experiment is carried out to gauge its performance. In this study, structure materials such as porous ceramics and porous ceramic-epoxy composites are also proposed as candidate materials for impedance matching for water and human tissues due to their low attenuations and impedances.摘要(I) Abstract(III) Content(V) List of Figures(VII) List of Tables(IX) 1.
