ABSTRACT:
A broadband electroacoustic transducer is disclosed which provides an improved response over a relatively broad range of frequencies. The transducer includes a plurality of tines extending between the outer circumferential surfaces of a pair of piezoelectric cylinders. The cylinders are disposed about a common axis and are separated by a gap. The tines extend longitudinally across the gap from one cylinder to the other. Each tine is separated from the adjacent tines by a space which is sized to prevent contact between the tines when the cylinders radially oscillate. A pre-stress wrap is disposed over the tines on both sides of the gap to provide a static, inwardly radial force on the cylinders.
