ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An ultrasonic probe particularly suitable for ultrasonic diagnostic equipments of the electronic scanning type is made up of a multiplicity of piezo- electric transducer elements, each in the shape of a rectangular plate with electrode films coated on both sides, arranged in a row at intervals and an acoustic impedance matching layer placed on the row of the trans- ducer elements. The width-to-thickness ratio of each piezoelectric plate takes a value not greater than 0.8 and preferably between 0.4 and 0.7 so that the plate can vibrate in width expansion mode. It is highly preferable that the impedance matching layer has a laminated structure given by two layers which are dif- ferent in acoustic impedance of the respective materials and individually have definite thicknesses. - 1 -
