Design Parameters of a Miniaturized Piezoelectric Underwater Acoustic Transmitter
PZT ceramics have been widely used in underwater acoustic transducers. However, literature available discussing the design parameters of a miniaturized PZT-based low-duty-cycle transmitter is very limited. This paper discusses some of the design parameters--the backing material, driving voltage, PZT material type, power consumption and the transducer length of a miniaturized acoustic fish tag u...
متن کاملAn injectable acoustic transmitter for juvenile salmon
Salmon recovery and the potential detrimental effects of dams on fish have been attracting national attention due to the environmental and economic implications. In recent years acoustic telemetry has been the primary method for studying salmon passage. However, the size of the existing transmitters limits the minimum size of fish that can be studied, introducing a bias to the study results. We...
متن کاملDesign and Fabrication of Piezoelectric Acoustic Sensor
This paper describes a fully integrated acoustic sensor that combines high sensitivity, wide frequency range and low cost of batch processed miniaturized silicon components. A sputtered piezoelectric ZnO layer transforms the mechanical deflection of a thin-etched-Si diaphragm into a piezoelectric charge. ZnO has transparent and conductive properties, which makes it attractive for a variety of s...
متن کاملA new acoustic tailbeat transmitter for ®shes
A new acoustic transmitter for monitoring the tailbeat frequency of free-swimming ®shes and sharks is described. The transmitter is externally mounted on the ®sh's caudal peduncle and produces an acoustic pulse with every lateral movement of the tail. Field tests on obligate-swimming juvenile scalloped hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna lewini) show these transmitters accurately telemeter tailbeat de ̄e...
متن کاملLab-on-A-Chip With Fluid Acoustic Microagitation - Piezoelectric Polymer beta-PVDF used as Ultrassonic Transducer
The main objective of this article is to describe the development of a fully-integrated disposable lab-on-achip for point of care testing and monitoring of biochemical parameters in biological fluids. The lab-on-achip is composed mainly by two dies: the fluid and the detection. The fluid die, fabricated in SU-8, comprises three microfluidic cuvettes, containing the fluids into analysis, and a β...
