PIEZOELECTRIC TRANSDUCER

The invention concerns a piezoelectric transducer including: a conductive layer between first and second piezo-electric layers; first and third electrodes arranged on the front surface of the second piezoelectric layer; second and fourth electrodes arranged on the rear surface of the first piezoelectric layer; and a control circuit configured to: in a first operating phase, simultaneously apply a non-zero voltage to the first electrode, a non-zero voltage to the fourth electrode, and substantially zero voltages to the second and third electrodes; and in a second operating phase, simultaneously apply a non-zero voltage to the second electrode, a non-zero voltage to the third electrode, and substantially zero voltages to the first and fourth electrodes.
