The transducer is made with a crystal that has a thickness of one half of the<br />

wavelength of the ultrasound, resonating at its fundamental frequency.<br />

Example: Frequency= 519Hz, Wavelength λ = Speed/ frequency =<br />

5890/519=11.35mm. The thickness of the transducer= 5.7mm approx.<br />

s= 5890m/s<br />
