Acoustic Microscopy by Atomic Force Microscopy
Applied Physics Letters, 1994We have constructed an atomic force microscope enabling one to image the topography of a sample, and to monitor simultaneously ultrasonic surface vibrations in the MHz range. For detection of the distribution of the ultrasonic vibration amplitude, a part of the position-sensing light beam reflected from the cantilever is directed to an external knife ...

The acoustic microscope is a new entry in the field of microscopic imaging. It comes after a delay of many years, but now appears to be well established. At last year's conference of the Royal Microscopical Society in London, for example, the booth traditionally reserved for new instruments was used to introduce commercial versions of acoustic ...

This paper describes tunneling acoustic microscopy (TAM), which is based upon a scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and a technique for detecting an acoustic wave. The principle of TAM is to detect fine strains generated in the STM sample. It enhances the features of STM without reducing its ability, and enables us to image nonconducting materials.

Abstract The principle of the scanning acoustic microscope is becoming increasingly well known (Lemons and Quate, 1979; Briggs, 1985). For any wave motion, the wave-length is equal to the wave speed divided by the frequency. Thus by increasing the frequency sufficiently the wavelength can be made as small as you like.

Surface and Interface Analysis, 1986
No doubt, light microscopy still plays the leading role in the qualitative and quantitative microscopical examination of metals. The introduction of quantitative techniques like manual and automated image analysis, microscope photometric reflectance measurements, analysis of elliptically polarized light by polarizing microscopy, interference microscopy

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1972
The new field of acoustic microscopy, still in its very infancy, may yet succumb due to irrelevance. On the other hand, it may prove to be extremely useful provided the mechanical wavemotion of sound indeed reveals important microscopic structures, not made visible by either light or electrom microscopy.

Scanning tomographic acoustic microscopy
IEEE Transactions on Image Processing, 1995The scanning tomographic acoustic microscope (STAM) was proposed in 1982 as a method of improving the resolution capability of the scanning laser acoustic microscope (SLAM) based on the principles of tomography. By modifying the SLAM with a quadrature detector, tomographic projections that contain both the amplitude and phase information of the ...

Acoustic transducer for acoustic microscopy
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1991A shear acoustic transducer-lens system in which a shear polarized piezoelectric material excites shear polarized waves at one end of a buffer rod having a lens at the other end which excites longitudinal waves in a coupling medium by mode conversion at selected locations on the lens.

Acoustic microscopy is emerging as an important analytical technique serving the needs of both biomedical and materials technology. Based upon imaging of specimens with elastic waves at VHF and UHF frequencies, acoustic microscopes reveal structural-mechanical properties with high magnification.

Resolution in the scanning acoustic microscope is determined by wavelength which is in turn limited by attenuation in the acoustic medium. In order to make use of the low attenuation found in cryogenic liquids we have developed an acoustic microscope suited for use at low temperatures.
