Capacitance Microphone for Measurement of Small Attenuation Coefficients

An improved capacitive transducer has been designed for use in attenuation and second-harmonic generation experiments in solids. The transducer can be used as both a driver and receiver, and completely eliminates bond corrections in attenuation measurements. Further, it is a broad-band transducer an...

Description
Summary:An improved capacitive transducer has been designed for use in attenuation and second-harmonic generation experiments in solids. The transducer can be used as both a driver and receiver, and completely eliminates bond corrections in attenuation measurements. Further, it is a broad-band transducer and should prove to be very useful in measurement of attenuation as a function of frequency.
