Abstract

A new type of air-coupled, line-focusing transducer is described. This capacitive broadband device, with an active area measuring 19.5mm x 45mm, consists of a metallised 3.5mm thick polymer film mounted over a brass backplate cylindrically concave along its length, with a radius of 28mm. Device bandwidth (-6dB) was found to be typically 200kHz to 900kHz, with a focal line width of similar to0.68 mm. A miniature air-coupled receiver was used to scan the radiated field of these devices, excited in both tone-burst and broadband mode, and the results compared to theoretical sound pressure plots using an impulse response method. A pair of devices has been used in a novel crossed arrangement to image the surface profile of solids.
