(U1'trazvu_kvme interferentsionnyye filtry s Jzjenyayemymi chastotami propuskaniya) PERIODICAL: "Akusticheskiy Zhurnal'? (Journal of Acoustics), 1957, V01.31 N0.21 pp. 183-191 (U.S.S.R.) ABSTRACT: The sonic field of normal plane piezoelectric sound sources is not homogeneous and has, apart from a cylindrical main sound beam, obliTe side beams. By suitable arrangement of flat composite surfaces placed in i;he front of the source, compensating filters may be obtained (1), (2). Practical application, hov.-ever, of such filters could be found only if their pass-band was made to vary continuously and smoothly. In the present article the author proves analytically that such filters can be realised. The theory of propagation of plane sound waves through an arbitrary combination of flat homogene- ous liquid layers gives the expressions for determining the Card 1/4 permeabilit coefficient of the medium for the sound energy Dw (eq. (1~ and f or the ref lection coeff icient % as functions of the material parameters and of the thickness of the layers (3). In eq.(l): f = sound waves frequency; Z i wave impedance; cpi. ~-_- wave thickness of the layer, 46-2-12/2_3 Ultrasonic filters with controlled frequency bandwidth. (Cont.) ai = sound propagation velocity, ()i= density, angle of incidence. For the sound reflection to be absent, (the amount of reflection determining the "transparency" of the asymmetrical interference filter), eq.(8) is to be satisfied, which for the case of a homogeneous single layer filter reduces to eq.(9). For the three layers combinat-ion, eq.(8) becomes (11) Which has four solutions, i.e. I, II, II and IV (eqs. 12, 12a, 12,f and 12B), where Z and 7, in eq. (12B) are arbi- trary constants. The solutZ;n IV is 9f most interest. Since in the lefthand side of the equation one has a product of tangents of (p, and (P2 f it becomes possible to compensate for their relative changes, e.g. by vary-Lng or 1 2 (thick- ness). It follows that, in principle, it would be possible to realise equalising filters with a smoothly varying pass-band. in practice, it would mean varying the thickness of the inner liquid layer. Since further analysis shows that it is possible to obtain a continuously regulated filter using three layers Card 2/4 only, a 3-layer filter only is considered in detail. The condition for full sound 11trmn parency" is derive4 eqs.(29)(30)a 116-2-12/23 Ultrasonic filters with controlled freqaency bandwidth. (cont.) Since, for highly selective filters, a small deviation from the centre frequency and that of -the incidence angle leads to an appreciable decrease in D w , the azz-band of a 3-layer filter is determined by expanding eq.(30Z into the Taylor's serieB 0 with respect to (p, and (P2 in the vicinity of (p, and fP2 and eq. (34) is obtained, permitting the calculation of the pass-band with respect to frequency and the incidence angle. The influence of losses on the pass-band is given in approxim- ation by eq. (40), which shows the broadening of the pass-band with increasing losses. The theoretical analysis has been applied to an experimental 3-layer ultrasonic filter. It con- sisted of two plane parallel aluminium plates with a regulated width of the water layer between them. The thickness of the plates was accurate to 0.005 mm and the arrangement and regu- lation of the system followed the procedure set in (5)- Fig.4 which gives the frequency characteristics of the filter, confirms very well the theoretical calculations. There are 3 graphs illustrating the theoretical analysis Card 3/4 and 1 graph of the frequency characteristics of the experi- mental filter against layer thicknesses.

This is because in acousti,-s the dimensions of the focusing system are not always very large compared with the wavelength, because there may be a non-uniform distribution of amplitude along the vave-front or because the converging va-79-front is not spherical or the angle of aperture may be large. 'xhe paper considers diffraction of sound waves at the focus of a system with a non-uniform amp.Litads distribution along the wave-front, with wave aberration and a large angle of aperture. The acoustical system considered may also have dimensioAs which are not much greater than the acoustic wavelength. It Is found that the amplitude may differ considerably at distances greater than one wavelength -without affec!ting tho diffrao-vion image too mu-.%.
