The invention relates to an array of ultrasound transducers which each comprise
a substrate (1), a membrane (2), a first electrode (4), a
piezoelectric layer (5), and a second electrode (6), wherein the
substrate (1) comprises at least one opening (3) which adjoins the
membrane (2) at one side, while the piezoelectric layer (5) has a
high piezoelectric coupling coefficient k and is textured. The invention further
relates to an ultrasound transducer and to a method of manufacturing an array of
ultrasound transducers.
