High resolution ultrasonic imaging requires high frequency wide band ultrasonic
transducers, which produce short pulses and highly focused beam. However,
currently the frequency of ultrasonic transducers is limited to below 100?MHz,
mainly because of the challenge in precise control of fabrication parameters.
This paper reports the design, fabrication, and characterization of sensitive
broadband lithium niobate (LiNbO3) single element ultrasonic transducers in the
range of 100-300?MHz, as well as their applications in high resolution imaging.
All transducers were built for an f-number close to 1.0, which was achieved by
press-focusing the piezoelectric layer into a spherical curvature.
Characterization results demonstrated their high sensitivity and a -6?dB
bandwidth greater than 40%. Resolutions better than 6.4??m in the lateral
direction and 6.2??m in the axial direction were achieved by scanning a 4??m
tungsten wire target. Ultrasonic biomicroscopy images of zebrafish eyes were
obtained with these transducers which demonstrate the feasibility of high
resolution imaging with a performance comparable to optical resolution.
