Abstract

AE sensor using lead-free ceramics should be developed for prohibiting environment protection. In this study, Langevin type AE sensor was manufactured as air backing structure. Here, the piezoelectic element was used as PZT(EC-65) and NKN, respectively. The resonant frequency of AE sensor using PZT was 143 kHz and the resonant frequency of AE sensor using NKN was 178 kHz. The waveform of AE sensor using NKN was responded more sensitively than that of AE sensor using PZT.
