Sommerkursus
The summer school takes place from 22.05.2014 to
28.05.2014.
Undervisningens placering:
Campus Lyngby
Undervisningsform:
Lectures, hands on micro and nanofabrication, transducer
measurements, computer based design exercises, project work,
discussions in groups and in plenum. You are expected to take
active part in lectures, and project work. You are required to
present your results at a mini-conference. Also, you are expected
to present your field of research at a poster session.

Overordnede kursusmål:
The goal of the summer school is to give an overview of the
different techniques required to design and fabricate micromachined
ultrasound transducers for medical imaging.
The summer school emphasizes hands-on and the students will work in
teams on transducer design, simulation, fabrication and
characterization.
Læringsmål:
En studerende, der fuldt ud har opfyldt kursets mål, vil kunne:
Use analytical theory to design capacitive micromachined
ultrasonic transducers.
Use the finite element tool COMSOL to design capacitive
micromachined ultrasonic transducers.
Use the tool Field II to simulate the ultrasound transducer
fields.
Use clean room based micro fabrication techniques for
fabrication of CMUTs
Characterize CMUTs using electrical and optical measurement
techniques
Generate a B-mode image from measured pulse-echo data
Present scientific results in a clear and concise way
-
Kursusindhold:
The topics include medical ultrasound imaging and transducer theory
and you will get practical experience in using the Field II program
for simulation of ultrasound transducer fields and ultrasound
imaging. You will try fabricating capacitive micromachined
ultrasonic transducers (CMUTs) in a cleanroom. The school also
covers analytical and finite element modelling of CMUTs.
The summer school emphasizes hands-on and the students will work in
teams on transducer design, simulation, fabrication and
characterization.
