Lateral mode coupling to reduce the electrical impedance of small elements required for high power ultrasound therapy phased arrays

A method that uses lateral coupling to reduce the electrical impedance of small transducer elements in generating ultrasound waves was tested. Cylindrical, radially polled transducer elements were driven at their length resonance frequency. Computer simulation and experimental studies showed that th...
