  • Method of detecting sound in water using piezoelectric-polymer composites with 0-3 connectivity
    Patent number: 4977547
    Abstract: A hydrophone device is provided with a piezoelectric ceramic-polymer composite of 0-3 connectivity in which the piezoelectric filler comprises a solid solution of PBTiO.sub.3 -BiFeO.sub.3 wherein the solid solution contains 50-80 wt. % of the BiFeO.sub.3. The piezoelectric ceramic-polymer composite has large hydrostatic piezoelectric charge and voltage coefficients which are desirable in hydrophone devices.
    Type: Grant
