Sonar
-
Piezo elements are used in military and commercial sonar systems for position finding activities. Location of surface and subsurface vessels, depth measurement, surveying, fish location, and communication are several of the more common sonar applications. Piezoelectric ceramic materials have high bandwidth and can quickly respond by applying high force at low power levels. These materials are generally unaffected by environmental factors such as humidity and temperature. CTS materials can be formed to customer specifications and are available in a wide range of geometries with dimensions up to 150 mm or thicknesses less than 100 microns. Our materials sustain high levels of drive voltage and provide excellent coupling factors in sonar applications.

The Nanomotor®
-
The patented Nanomotor® is a piezo driven linear motor. It is a multifunctional basic part for many positioning and manipulation devices. It has a positioning stroke of up to more than a centimeter while operating with atomic resolution. The Nanomotor thus bridges eight orders of magnitude. The Nanomotor consists of a cylindrical housing and a slider with a free axial hole inside. It combines high resolution in the sub-nanometer range with a large positioning stroke. The Nanomotor utilizes a piezo tube for fine positioning and a shock wave produced by the same piezo tube for coarse movements. The small Nanomotor is half the size of a match stick. It can lift six times its own mass. Every point of its stroke can be reached with a speed of up to 1 mm/s. The Nanomotor also works in ultrahigh vacuum or even under water. It is driven by a PC card at a supply voltage of only ±15 volts.

Physik Instrumente GmbH & Co. KG
Compact Parallel-Kinematic Piezo System for Nanopositioning and Fiber Alignment. In a parallel-kinematic multi-axis system, all actuators act directly on a single motion platform. This means that all axes can be designed with identical dynamic properties, which reduces the moved mass considerably. Further advantages: It is possible to make the parallel-kinematic system more compact than serial stacked or nested systems. The errors and masses of each individual axis do not accumulate.

AOSense has developed a compact Integrated Laser Controller (ILC) that can be paired with our External Cavity Diode Lasers (ECDLs) to control laser current, piezo transducer (PZT), and temperature. The ultra-low noise electronics are fully digitally controlled. The ILC dimensions are only 5″x2.9″x0.95″. We provide software with an easy-to-use graphical user interface (GUI) that can control multiple lasers from a single window. If preferred, commands may be sent over a USB virtual COM port. The software screenshot below (click the image to enlarge) shows the interface including a plot of the temperature (green line) as it settles to a commanded value.

Low Voltage DC / Battery Powered HV Amplifiers
WMA-01 And WMA-01LF
-
The Falco Systems WMA-01 is a high voltage amplifier that runs from an 24 - 30V DC power supply and can be battery powered if required, e.g. for use in a Faraday cage. Its internal high voltage generator is inductor-free and hence does not spread magnetic interference in sensitive experimental setups. The output noise is impressively low at 3mVrms. For extremely low noise applications where bandwidth is not an issue, a dedicated WMA-01LF version is available that contains an output low pass filter capacitor which reduces the bandwidth to 50Hz, but makes the noise drop to below 0.1mVrms. This bandwidth-limited amplifier is ideal for MEMS or piezo positioning with manual voltage adjustment.

Hydrophones
-
Piezo is a critical element in producing a hydrophone for military and commercial underwater listening applications. Hydrophones utilize piezoelectric elements to detect sound pressure waves produced by underwater vessels, animals, and the environment. Hydrophones must have a flat frequency response that is proportional to the magnitude of the sound pressure wave. CTS piezo elements provide this critical function in hydrophones by providing excellent frequency response and high coupling factors necessary in hydrophone applications. CTS materials provide excellent electrical properties for hydrophone applications while allowing the ability to form the piezo element to the desired mechanical structure for the hydrophone.
