ABSTRACT:
A marine seismic source for generating acoustic source energy from electrical power. A slotted housing has an exterior surface engaged with an electrically activated transducer such as a piezoelectric transducer. One or more piezoelectric components can be adhered or otherwise attached to the exterior surface of the housing. A case can cover all or part of the piezoelectric components, and the case can be waterproof to prevent contact between the transducer and the water. The case can be integrated with the slotted housing to form a composite structure, or a cavity, for containing a transducer such as piezoelectric components.
