PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a height of projecting parts of fixed electrodes quantitatively, in a push/pull type electrostatic ultrasonic transducer. SOLUTION: In a push/pull type electrostatic ultrasonic transducer 1, a formula for optimally setting a height (t) of projecting parts of fixed electrodes 10A and 10B when a desired sound pressure and a driving frequency are given is formalized. The formula is obtained by a=(1/πf)√ä(I<SB>O</SB>*10<SP>P/10</SP>)/2ρ<SB>O</SB>c} when it is assumed that the desired sound pressure is P(dB), the driving frequency is f(Hz) and a value of one side amplitude of a film oscillation 12 is a(m), wherein Io denotes the reference acoustic intensity being 0.96×10<SP>-12</SP>(W/m<SP>2</SP>),ρo is the density of the air being 1.2(kg/m<SP>3</SP>), and (c) denotes the sound speed in the air being around 340(m/S). A value exceeding and closest to the one side amplitude value "a" obtained by the formula (at least in a range where an oscillation film never contacts with an electrode due to the film oscillation) is set to be the height (t) of the projecting parts of the fixed electrodes.
