Today, a vast number of micro-manufactured sensors, actuators and components vibrate at frequencies in the high MHz range. Some examples of these high-frequency vibrating systems include surface ...

A research team has developed the world's first high-performance photoacoustic endoscopy based on a transparent ultrasonic transducer. Their findings were recently published in the journal Science ...

A new review article unveils the world of flexible micromachined ultrasound transducers (MUTs), an emerging technology at the intersection of wearables, ultrasound, and MEMS. These cutting-edge ...

The notion of a phased array was initially articulated by Nobel Prize recipient K. F. Braun. Phased arrays have subsequently evolved into a formidable mechanism for wave manipulation. This assertion ...

Before humans discovered ultrasound for a variety of medical, technical and military applications, nature had perfected it over millions of years for navigation under and above water. Dolphins and ...

Throughout the surgical process, the surgeon must have access to a real-time assessment of blood vessels to make evaluations relative to the flow of blood. Piezo transducers are at the heart of ...
