Abstract :
In this paper the state of AO Bragg cell technology is discussed and the very important area of device modelling is reviewed. It is shown that certain acoustic modes may be preferred for high dynamic range applications. The design and analysis of phased array transducers is also discussed and the mathematical formalism is generalized. Some experimental results using RF sputtered ZnO film transducers are presented.
