We show preliminary results of the implantation of a stabilized Michelson interferometer for the characterization of ultrasonic transducers. The detection system consists of a Michelson interferometer in which a feedback system has been integrated to set the interferometer at the linear region of detection and to compensate optical phase changes introduced by environmental vibrations; this allows us to work in the most sensible region of the system and obtain output signals proportional to the detected displacements (< 10 nm). The obtained results show that it is possible to detect ultrasonic displacements close to 0,2 nm in a bandwidth of 3 MHz using a He-Ne laser with an output power of 1 mW. Preliminary characterization of ultrasonic displacements generated by an ultrasonic transducer immersed in a water tank was performed using this interferometer.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
