Single Crystal Shear Plates

Single Crystal Material Properties

CTS offers fine-tuned single crystal materials, based on the PMN-PT and PIN-PMN-PT systems.

Piezoceramic Shear Plates and Shear Stacks

Designed to utilize the shear deformation, these components offer high piezoelectric coefficients and high mechanical stifness. Ideal for accelerometer applications.

Single Crystal Discs, Rings and Rods

With high electromechanical coupling, these single crystal components are ideal for underwater active sonar applications.

Single Crystal Plates, Wafers and Bars

Commonly employed in medical ultrasound imaging, single crystal plates are versatile and reliable components that offer even stress distribution and accurate frequency control.

How Is the Piezoelectric Effect Used to Generate Ultrasound?

This guide explains how piezoelectricity is used to create ultrasound, and how ultrasound is used in various applications.

How Piezoelectric Transducers Enable Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS)

Piezoelectric transducers are instrumental in enabling intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). Combined and mounted on a catheter probe, piezoelectric transducers can generate ultrasound to scan the inside of blood vessels, helping to diagnose e.g., coronary artery diseases.
