Evolvable Acoustic Field Generated by a Transducer with 3D-Printed Fresnel Lens

Evolvable acoustic fields are considered an effective method for solving technical problems related to fields such as biological imaging, particle manipulation, drug therapy and intervention. However, because of technical difficulties and the limited technology available for realizing flexible adjus...

description Evolvable acoustic fields are considered an effective method for solving technical problems related to fields such as biological imaging, particle manipulation, drug therapy and intervention. However, because of technical difficulties and the limited technology available for realizing flexible adjustments of sound fields, few studies have reported on this aspect in recent years. Herein, we propose a novel solution, using a Fresnel lens-focused ultrasonic transducer for generating excited-signal-dependent acoustic pressure patterns. Finite element analysis (FEA) is used to predict the performance of a transducer with a Fresnel lens. The Fresnel lens is printed using 3D additive manufacturing. Normalized intensity maps of the acoustic pressure fields are characterized from the Fresnel lens-focused transducer under various numbers of excited-signal cycles. The results demonstrate that under different cycle excitations, a temporal evolution acoustic intensity can be generated and regulated by an ultrasound transducer with a 3D Fresnel lens. This acoustical pattern control method is not only simple to realize but also has considerable application prospects.
