Abstract
An ultrasonic transducer is disclosed which includes a vibrating element comprising a sheet of a piezoelectric polymeric material which consists essentially of a copolymer of about 65 to 82 mol percent of vinylidene fluoride and about 35 to 18 mol percent of ethylene trifluoride. The polymeric material is formed into a film of the desired thickness and then heated to a temperature greater than about the crystal phase transition temperature and less than about the melting-point temperature for a period of time of about ten minutes to about two hours to produce a heat-treated film. The heat-treated film is poled in an electrical field of from about 50 to about 1,500 kilovolts per centimeter to give the film a thickness extensional electromechanical coupling factor of at least 0.05 and preferably greater than 0.2.
