Diagnostic and high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) phased-arrays provide many advantages over single element transducers, including dynamic focal beam steering capability. These arrays should be fabricated with element-to-element pitch smaller than half the wavelength at the resonance frequency to avoid unwanted secondary foci due to grating lobes and side lobes. However, smaller pitch increases...
