Abstract

The invention relates to devices using transducer elements comprising a film of piezoelectric polymer arranged between electrodes. The transducer element in accordance with the present invention is in the form of a thermoformed protuberance. These devices are used for detecting and generating elastic compression waves, for infrared radiation, and for storing electrical energy.
