Abstract:The characteristics of lead metaniobate make it peculiarly suited to hydrophone applications where high hydrostatic pressures are encountered. Some hydrophone design parameters are discussed, properties of various materials are compared, and the measured performance of hydrophones containing lead metaniobate elements is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
