Curved piezoelectric transducers are provided. The curved piezoelectric transducer includes a substrate, a curved support layer having a peripheral portion in contact with the substrate, and a curved piezoelectric element disposed on the curved support layer. Methods of making the curved piezoelectric transducers are also provided. The curved piezoelectric transducers, devices and methods find use in a variety of applications, including devices, such as electronics devices, having one or more (e.g., an array) of the curved piezoelectric transducers on a substrate. |
