Abstract
. When used as the piezoelectric material in underwater acoustic transducers (UATs), compared with all kinds of piezoelectric ceramics, it achieved higher piezoelectric and comprehensive mechanical properties, lower dielectric loss, lower density, and electromechanical coupling properties similar to that of Pb-containing piezoelectric ceramics, thus showing extremely promising application prospects in UATs.
