An Integrated Front-end Circuit Board for Air-Coupled CMUT Burst-Echo Imaging

open access: yesSensors, 2020
To conduct burst-echo imaging with air-coupled capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs) using the same elements in transmission and reception, this work proposes a dedicated and integrated front-end circuit board design to build an imaging

Optoacoustic imaging with an air-coupled transducer using coaxially aligned focused illumination

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2022
Optoacoustic (OA) methods have become powerful tools in biomedical research capable of retrieving functional information from biological tissues in vivo. Acquisition of OA signals generally relies on direct physical contact of a transducer or an acoustic

A noncontact ultrasonic platform for structural inspection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Miniature robotic vehicles are receiving increasing attention for use in nondestructive testing (NDE) due to their attractiveness in terms of cost, safety, and their accessibility to areas where manual inspection is not practical. Conventional ultrasonic

Phased-Array Approach to Air-coupled Ultrasound with Resonant Defect Excitation

open access: yesResearch and Review Journal of Nondestructive Testing, 2023
Wave propagation in air-coupled ultrasound (ACUT) is slower compared to ultrasound in immersion technique. Due to the lower velocity of sound the maximum pulse repetition rate is five times smaller than in water coupled ultrasound.

An Airborne Sonar System for Underwater Remote Sensing and Imaging

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2020
High-resolution imaging and mapping of the ocean and its floor has been limited to less than 5% of the global waters due to technological barriers. Whereas sonar is the primary contributor to existing underwater imagery, the water-based system is limited
