Lens geometries for quantitative acoustic microscopy
(Springer, 1995)The purpose of the first Lemons-Quate acoustic microscope(1) was to image the surfaces of materials or biological cells with a high resolution. Unfortunately, competition with the optical microscope was only partially ... -
A new directional acoustic lens: V-groove lens
(IEEE, 1993)A new directional acoustic lens is introduced. The geometry is very similar to the line-focus lens except the lens cavity, which is shaped as a groove with flat-bottom V cross section. The slanted planar edges of the groove ... -
A synthetic aperture imaging system using surface wave modes
(IEEE, 1995)A synthetic aperture acoustic imaging system with a novel inversion algorithm is described. Data is obtained by using a transducer insonifying the sample surface at a critical angle which is excited by a short electrical ...
