ABSTRACT:
An ultrasonic transducer for use in a high temperature environment and method for fabricating the same. A disk-shaped piezoelectric crystal is weakened in at least one surface in accordance with a predetermined line pattern relative to a first direction in that surface. The crystal is bonded to a thin lens material with a coefficient of thermal expansion dissimilar in this first direction. The predetermined line pattern is adapted to relieve stress in this first direction created by unequal rates of expansion or contraction of the crystal and the lens.
