Welcome to the 9th International Workshop on Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducers

Panevėžys, Lithuania, 20^th-21^th May 2010

Attention! Vilnius-Panevėžys shuttle will depart May 19, 20:00 from the airport as promised, but also will make the stop in the central part of Vilnius (Ukmergės street bridge and Goštauto street corner) to pick up people visiting the city. Please contact us by MUT2010@panmc.lt for more information.

Initiated in 2001 in Rome, the MUT workshop took place since then, almost every year, in various cities of Europe (Besançon (2002), Lausanne (2003), Florence (2004), Munich (2006), Antalya (Turkey)(2007), Trondheim (2008), Besançon (2009)). It gathers researchers and engineers from all over the world to exchange knowledge, ideas, results and perspectives on this new and attractive applicative field.

Micromachined Ultrasound Transducers (MUT) present good bandwidth characteristics, design flexibility, electronic interface integration and, potentially, low cost. They offer a promising alternative to piezoelectric transducers for various medical and industrial applications.
