U l t r a s o n i c couplings C avitron Corp British Patent 1,215, 881 (1970) Filed 15 Jan 1968 Apparatus for r e m o v i n g unwanted m a t e r i a l (eg animal tissue) f r o m an enclosed a r e a c o m p r i s e s a casing in which is mounted m e a n s for applying high-frequency v i b r a t i o n s of minute anapUtude to the unwanted m a t e r i a l to disintegrate it. The casing contains two p a s s a g e s for the supply and r e m o v a l of a bathing liquid. The a p p a r a t u s can be used for eye c a t a r a c t operations. Semi-conductor transducers Matsushita Electric Industrial Co Ltd British Patent 1, 216, 005 (1970) Filed 7 March 1968 A surface region of an etectromechanical transducer is doped with deep level impurities and provided w R h a metal layer forming a rectifying contact with the region.

Generating a c o u s t i c w a v e s Soc Nationals des P e t r o l e s d'Aquitaine B r i t i s h Patent 1,216, 488 (1970) Filed 22 Dec 1967 F o r s e i s m i c exploration on land, s p a r k gaps are located in a w a t e r - f i l l e d cavity in the ground; for marine s e i s m i c exploration they a r e supported by a ship. One or m o r e geophones detect the s u b s u r f a c e r e f l e c t i o n s of the acoustic wave, and their outputs are r e c o r d e d for subsequent signal p r o c e s s i n g . Ultrasonic thickness measurement system Magnaflux Corp B r i t i s h Patent 1,216, 511 (1970) Filed 5 Jan 1968 The thickness of a workpiece is determined f r o m the duration of an output signal f r o m a digital counter, the signal p e r s i s t i n g for the interval between two selected echo pulses of a s e r i e s produced by multiple r e f l e c t i o n of an u l t r a s o n i c pulse between the s u r f a c e s and applied to the counter. In an embodiment, a t r a n s d u c e r launches a pulse through water couplant and applies the resulting train of echoes to a gate.
