Abstract

See full text

Methods are disclosed for the elimination of spurious echos in electro-acoustic delay lines using bulk waves. The method consists in etching an array, formed of hollows and peaks on a reflecting side of a delay line of this type, the difference in height between the said hollows and peaks giving the waves reflected from them a phase difference such that the signals induced by the spurious echos in the transducer cancel one another out. The method can be used to improve the characteristics of a delay line using bulk waves without excessively complicating its manufacture.
