A Thickness-Mode High-Frequency Underwater Acoustic Transducer with a Low Sidelobe Level
Thickness vibration mode is commonly used for high-frequency transducers. For disc piezoelectric ceramics, there is no ideally pure thickness vibration mode because the coupling between the radial and thickness modes always exists.

Acoustic microscopy of solid materials
Abstract Conventional ultrasonic imaging uses frequencies up to 10 MHz or perhaps a little higher. Scanning acoustic microscopy extends the frequencies used to the GHz region, with a corresponding improvement in resolution. The technique is now beginning to be applied to problems in the study of materials.

Are Acoustical Materials a Menace in the Hospital? [PDF]
Hospitals must be made quiet. To determine what would best meet their exacting requirements as to cleanliness, maintenance, permanance and cost, a series of tests were undertaken on the various acoustical treatments available. To determine further whether these materials would act as abiding and breeding places for bacteria and so present a menace in ...
