Abstract :
We aimed to develop a Langevin longitudinal transducer without bolts using a single crystal. The electric equivalent circuit for the samples was calculated and the high-power operation characteristic was measured. To suppress the temperature rise of the transducer, we drove the transducers using a burst signal. We analyzed the transducer including the bonding layer using the finite element method
