چکیده
The Mason crossed-field circuit model is generalized to simulate apodized interdigital transducers without channel division. The apodized transducer model is based on the transmission line model, and the artificial transformer with different voltage and current coupling ratios is used to independently obtain the transfer function and radiation admittance. In addition, a heuristic expression for transformer current ratios is used to approximate the radiation admittance of apodized transducers. Through comparing with the multichannel model, this unichannel model is illustrated to successfully describe the frequency response of apodized interdigital transducers.

Narrow electrodes on YZ-LiNbOO3 as an alternative to etched grooves for dispersive delay lines.
Narrow, open-circuited aluminum electrodes can provide controllable, weak reflectivity necessary for many applications such as surface acoustic wave (SAW) tags and dispersive delay lines (DDLs). We show, using finiteand boundary element method (FEM-BEM) based simulations and experiments, that a reflectivity of 0.3% per wavelength can be achieved easily and controlled by varying the electrode wi...
متن کاملMeasurement of dynamic end-to-end cavity phase shifts in cesium-fountain frequency standards.
We have measured a previously unobserved systematic frequency shift in our cesium-fountain frequency standard, NIST-F1. This shift, predicted theoretically previously, mimics the well-known end-to-end phase shift in atomic beam standards when synchronous thermal transients are present. Detuning the microwave cavity several megahertz from resonance reduces this effect to the deltaf/f = 1o(-16) l...
متن کامل3-D ultrasonic strain imaging using freehand scanning and a mechanically-swept probe.
This paper compares 2 approaches to 3-D ultrasonic axial strain imaging: a tracked ultrasound probe swept manually over a volume, and a mechanically-swept 3-D probe. We find that high-quality data are more easily obtained using the 3-D probe, but the freehand approach may be more practical in certain scanning situations.
متن کاملPrecision measurement of fermionic collisions using an 87Sr optical lattice clock with 1 x 10(-16) inaccuracy.
We describe recent progress on the JILA Sr optical frequency standard, which has a systematic uncertainty at the 10(¿16) fractional frequency level. The dominant contributions to the systematic error are from blackbody radiation shifts and collisional shifts. We discuss the blackbody radiation shift and propose measurements and experimental protocols that should reduce its systematic contributi...
متن کاملA solution to the charging problems in capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers.
We report on a capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) featuring isolation posts (PostCMUT) as a solution to the charging problems caused by device fabrication and operation. This design improves the device reliability. The PostCMUTs were fabricated using a newly developed process based on the wafer-bonding technique. Paired tests showed the superior reliability characteristics of...
