    摘要: A bulk semiconductor oscillator subassembly is carried on a support pin. The oscillator assembly includes a semiconductor diode mounted on the pin with one terminal connected thereto. The other terminal is connected to one end of an input coupling loop which has its other end connected to the pin through a by-pass capacitor. Biasing voltages are applied to the diode via a lead connected to the loop. The loop is coupled to a Yttrium Iron Garnet (YIG) sphere which serves as a resonator. The resonant frequency of the resonator is tuned by adjusting a DC magnetic field applied thereto. The output is obtained by an output loop which is located orthogonally with respect to the input loop and coupled to the YIG whereby the input and output loops are coupled through the YIG resonator.

    摘要: An ultrasonic imaging tube is provided. A tube body has a longitudinal axis and a circumference. A first transducer array is disposed in the body along the longitudinal axis. A second transducer array is disposed in the body along the longitudinal axis. The first transducer array is substantially parallel with the second transducer array. The first transducer array and the second transducer array are at a first non-zero angle to each other about the longitudinal axis.

    摘要: An acoustic array is helical or twisted about or around an azimuth axis. For example, one end of the array has an emitting face at 0 degrees, but the other end has an emitting face at 20 degrees. The elements in between gradually transition between the different rotations. Different apertures of the twisted array may be used to scan different generally radial diverging planes for three-dimensional imaging. The different amount of relative rotation associated with each aperture cause angular elevation spacing of the planes. For use in a catheter, a single row of elements may be used to scan electrically a volume.

    摘要: CMUT elements are formed on a substrate. Electrical conductors are formed to interconnect between different portions of the substrate. The substrate is then separated into pieces while maintaining the electrical connections across the separation. Since the conductors are flexible, the separated substrate slabs may be positioned on a curved surface while maintaining the electrical interconnection between the slabs. Large curvatures may be provided, such as associated with forming a multidimensional transducer array for use in a catheter. The electrical interconnections between the different slabs and elements may allow for a walking aperture arrangement for three dimensional imaging.

    摘要: An RF amplifier including first and second FETs which are interconnected to function as a single transistor with improved gate. An input signal is applied across the gate and source of the first FET, and an output signal is obtained across the drain and source of the second transistor. RF coupling of the FETs is provided by first and second serially connected transmission lines connected between the drain of the first FET and the gate of the second FET. A third transmission line connects the common terminal of the first and second transmission line to circuit ground. In a preferred embodiment, the amplifier comprises a monolithic circuit formed in gallium arsenide with the transmission lines comprising microstrip.
