Definitions
- the invention relates to a hydrophone with a flat piezoelectric base body.
- the electrically active area of the base body is polarized in the direction of the thickness of the film and has only a very small extent in the plane of the flat sides of the base body.
- Such miniature hydrophones are known to measure ultrasonic fields in a sound-carrying medium.
- a membrane made of polyvinylidene fluoride PVDF or copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with tetrafluoroethylene or also with trifluoroethylene with a thickness of about 25 J.Lm, for example, can be provided as the base body, which can be stretched as a membrane between two metal rings. At its center is the piezoelectrically active area, which is provided with electrodes and forms a receiving element.
- the film can also be stretched at the end of a coaxial cable and its piezoelectrically active region with an extent of approximately 1 mm can be arranged approximately on the tip of a needle.
- the receiving elements have a diameter of approximately 2 mm and their capacitance is approximately 8 pF.
- a preamplifier is connected to a cable about 30 cm long. (J. Soc Accoust Am, Vol 61, .Suppi No. 1, Spring 1977, pp S 17 and S 18......) 10 6 V / Pa - With this arrangement, one obtains a sensitivity of about 3.2 .
- the invention is now based on the knowledge that the expansion of the receiving elements cannot be limited arbitrarily because metallic electrodes adhere poorly to the polymer film.
- the sensitivity can only be increased if an electronic amplifier element, preferably a field effect transistor, is assigned to each receiving element, which must be arranged in the immediate vicinity of the receiving element.
- a connection of an amplifier located relatively far away loads the receiving element by the line capacitance C L and leads to a reduced voltage U in accordance with a capacitance C E of the receiving element and a receiver voltage U E
- a coaxial cable for example, has a line capacitance of approximately 1 pF / cm, so that, for example, with a 30 cm line, the receiver voltage is reduced to C E / 30 pF. If, on the other hand, the impedance has already changed at the output of the amplifier, a line can then be routed to other parts of the amplifier. If a larger number of receiving elements are arranged close to one another, then the associated amplifiers must also be arranged in approximately the same grid dimension.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of improving this known miniature hydrophone, in particular a hydrophone is to be specified with which even unknown ultrasonic fields of greater extent can be measured in a short time and in a simple manner. Furthermore, the usability and sensitivity should be increased.
- a linear arrangement of transducer elements in the embodiment as a transverse oscillator is attached to the narrow side of a common, flat substrate.
- Opposing surfaces of the transducer elements that run parallel to the polarization axis are each provided with a metallization.
- the free end faces of the transducer elements serve to emit the ultrasound.
- the transducer elements are made by cuts perpendicular to the end face and electrically isolated from one another.
- the flat sides of the substrate are provided with electrodes using thin-film technology and are connected in an electrically conductive manner to the metallizations of the transducer elements.
- the required electronics in thin-film technology are arranged on one of the flat sides of the substrate (GB-A-2 052 918).
- an ultrasound pickup for two-dimensional image scanning is known with discrete ultrasound transducers, each of which is assigned a flexible printed circuit board which is provided with an integrated circuit.
- the leads are of unequal lengths (GB-A-1 530 783).
- Another known ultrasonic transducer arrangement with several transducer elements for absorbing ultrasonic vibrations from a sound-carrying medium contains a film made of polyvinylidene fluoride PVDF as the base body.
- This base body is on one of its flat sides in predetermined piezoelectrically active areas, each of which forms one of the transducer elements, with one Electrode made of electrically conductive material.
- the film is polarized in the direction of its thickness only in these regions and its electrodes are arranged on one flat side on a base body.
- This monolithic embodiment of an ultrasonic transducer arrangement forms a broadband reception array with high sensitivity (DE-A-31 49 732).
- the thickness of the electrodes which are preferably fastened, for example vapor-deposited, on a top surface of the carrier body, will generally not substantially exceed a few ⁇ m and preferably be substantially less than 1 JJ.m.
- the assigned electrical connection conductors must not significantly exceed this thickness. They can be produced in a relatively simple manner in the same operation with the electrodes, for example in a photolithographic process.
- the surface areas of the top surface and the side surface adjacent to the edge can be provided with a groove which is directed perpendicular to the edge. Within these grooves, at least part of the surface is provided with a metallization, with the aid of which the line connection between the electrodes and the electrical elements mentioned is established, for example by a solder contact (DE-A-32 46 661).
- the invention makes use of these known design features of an ultrasonic transducer arrangement and consists in the characterizing features of claim 1.
- the extension of the receiving elements in the plane of the flat sides of the base body is generally less than 1 mm and their distance is limited to not much more than one tenths of a millimeter. Since the extension of the assigned amplifiers, preferably hybrid amplifiers, does not significantly exceed these dimensions, this also results in a grid dimension of the linear arrangement of less than 1 mm.
- This hydrophone has a sensitivity of at least 10- 5 V / Pa. To measure an ultrasound field, only a shift in one direction transverse to the linear arrangement of the receiving elements is required.
- the distance between the first and last receiving element from the beginning and the end of the carrier body is only about half the distance between the receiving elements.
- a larger number of modules can thus be arranged in succession in the linear direction of expansion of the receiving elements to form a common structural unit with the same grid dimension, with which ultrasonic fields of greater extent can also be measured in a short time.
- a receiving element 10 is formed from the piezoelectrically active region 3 of a base body 2, indicated by dashed lines in the figure, to which an electrode 4 is assigned on its upper flat side and an electrode 5 on its lower flat side, which is on a carrier body 16 is attached.

- the metallization in the groove 24 serves, for example, as an electrical connection, preferably for soldering, of a connecting conductor 26 for an amplifier 32 assigned to the receiving element 10 and arranged on a substrate 33.
- An associated connecting conductor 27 and an amplifier 36 which is arranged in the same way on a substrate 37, can be seen in the figure from the adjacent receiving element (not shown in the figure).
- the base body 2 of the receiving element 10 consists of a film of a polymer, preferably polyvinylidene fluoride PVDF, or also a copolymer of vinylidene fluoride with tetrafluoroethylene or with trifluoroethylene, with a thickness of approximately 25 ⁇ m, for example, which polarizes in the direction of its thickness in its piezoelectrically active region 3 is.
- the associated electrodes 4 and 5 are made of metal, the thickness of which preferably does not exceed a few JJ.m and in particular can be significantly less than 1 4 m.
- Chromium / silver or also chromium / gold is preferably suitable, in which the chromium layer with a thickness of, for example, approximately 20 nm serves as an adhesion promoter, on which then a Silver layer of about 0.2 f.Lm is deposited.

- hard backing for example ceramic, preferably aluminum oxide A1 2 0 3 , is suitable, the sound impedance of which is approximately 40 ⁇ 10 6 kg / m 2 s. Glass or quartz with a sound impedance of 14 x 10 6 kg / m 2 s is also suitable.
- a soft backing can also be provided as the carrier 16, which absorbs the ultrasound itself and can be made of rubber, for example.
- a received ultrasound signal is then capacitively coupled in a frequency range of approximately 1 to at least 10 MHz in the transducer element 10 from the lower flat side of the active region 3 to the electrode 5 and fed to the associated amplifier 32 via the connecting conductors 11 and 26.
- Hybrid amplifiers which are arranged on a substrate 33, preferably a thin film substrate, are preferably suitable as amplifiers 32. These hybrid amplifiers have a heterogeneous structure.
- the resistors can preferably be constructed using thin-film technology, while the associated transistors are glued on as transistor chips and their electrically conductive connections are bonded.
- the receiving element 10 is coupled via an ultrasound coupling medium 38 to a cover film 39, which can consist, for example, of a polymer and can serve as an end wall on the front side of a chamber in which the structural unit shown is arranged.

- the base body 2 with the adhesive layer 6 is shown for clarity at a certain distance from the lower electrodes 5, which are arranged one behind the other in the linear direction of expansion of a module not shown in the figure, for example 16 receiving elements 10.
- a grid dimension of the receiving elements 10 of 0.8 mm is obtained, so that the entire length L of the module is approximately 12 mm. This results in a capacitance CE of the receiving elements 10 of approximately -1.6 pF at a frequency of 2 MHz, for example.
- the amplifiers 32 and 36 assigned to the receiving elements 10 can each be arranged alternately on one of the side surfaces 17 and 18 of the carrier 16.
- the length of the electrical line connection between the electrode 5 and the associated amplifier 32, which is formed from the connecting conductors 11 and 26, which are connected to one another by means of the metallization within the groove 22, is very short and can be, for example, only about 1 mm and is also the same for all receiving elements 10.
- the sensitivity of the system consisting of receiving element 10 and amplifier 32 or 36 is thus homogeneous and very high.
