Abstract
1,263,093. Acoustic holography. HOLOTRON CORP. 6 March, 1969 [6 March, 1968; 20 May, 1968], No. 12036/69. Heading H4D. [Also in Division G2] To reduce the dependence of image resolution on the size of light source 38 (Fig. 3) and on irregularities in ultrasonic hologram detecting surface 31 when reconstructing an optical image of object 34 from an ultrasonic hologram, viewing optics are focused on the detecting surface itself. As shown the optics comprise lens 40 and spatial filter 42 for selecting a first order diffraction beam, and eyepiece 44 (which may be replaced by a photographic or television camera). To ensure that the real and conjugate diffraction images of the object are in or near to the detecting surface plane, the object is placed near the detecting surface or an acoustic image of the object is formed at the surface by acoustic lens 50 (Fig. 8). Resolution of the hologram is improved by making the wavefront of the reference ultrasonic beam from transducer 26 perfectly regular. If transducer 26 is a disc type, the disturbing effects of conical beams 88 (Fig. 7) from its edges are avoided by forming an acoustic image 82<SP>1</SP> of it at the detecting surface, whereby region AB is free from edge effects. Acoustic lens 92 (Fig. 8) forms the image and adjustment of the image size gives control of the energy density at the detecting surface. A regular spherical wavefront can be formed (Fig. 9) from a reference beam (disc or spherical) transducer by means of an acoustic lens 98 and pinhole stop 104.
