A needle-type miniature hydrophone was developed using hydrothermally deposited lead zirconate titanate (PZT) polycrystalline films on a titanium (Ti) wire with a diameter of 0.3 mm in this study: Two types of hydrophones were fabricated as a trial for this paper. One is a hydrophone with hydrothermally deposited PZT polycrystalline films on the end surface and side surface near the end of the Ti wire. The other one is a hydrophone with hydrothermally deposited PZT polycrystalline films only on the end surface of the Ti wire. We measured the frequency characteristics of the relative receiving sensitivity and directivity of the fabricated hydrophones. The frequency characteristics of the relative receiving sensitivities of the fabricated hydrophone type A or B were measured in the frequency range from 1 to 20 MHz. Our hydrophone with deposited PZT films on the end and side faces of the Ti wire had problems in the directivity of relative receiving sensitivity. The relative sensitivity of the side direction was higher than that of the front direction. The directivity of our hydrophone with hydrothermally deposited PZT films only on the end surface of the Ti wire was improved remarkably.
