Acoustic measurements of thin piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films coated on metallic wires are presented. These experiments have demonstrated that PZT coatings fabricated by a sol-gel process can be not only coated on curved metal substrates for high-frequency focused ultrasonic transducer applications, but also on metallic wires with a long coating length for low-frequency acoustic vibrators.<<ETX>>
