Penetration Depth of the Scanning Acoustic Microscope [PDF]
A definition for the penetration depth of the scanning re- flection acoustic microscope is given. With this definition it is possible to calculate the penetration depth of a given lens geometry for a given material. The penetration depth depends on the elastic parameters of the object, the signal-to-noise ratio, and the operation frequency of the ...

Increasing the Sensitivity of the Scanning Acoustic Microscope to Anisotropy [PDF]
The response of the scanning acoustic microscope to anisotropic materials is theoretically investigated. For this purpose, the reflection coefficient of plane acoustic waves incident on a liquid-anisotropic-solid interface is numerically calculated. The reflection coefficient depends, in general, on polar and azimuthal angles of incidence.

Improvement of anisotropy sensitivity in the scanning acoustic microscope [PDF]
The response of the conventional scanning acoustic microscope (SAM) to anisotropic materials is theoretically investigated. For this purpose, the reflection coefficient of plane acoustic waves incident on a liquid-solid interface is numerically calculated for a general anisotropic solid oriented in any arbitrary direction.

Scanning Acoustic Force Microscope Investigations of Surface Acoustic Waves
We report on the investigation of surface acoustic wave (SAW) fields by scanning acoustic force microscopy (SAFM), reaching submicron lateral resolution. The SAFM is based on a standard atomic force microscope and utilizes the non-linear force curve in the sense of a mechanical diode. The surface oscillation therefore leads to a shift of the cantilever'

Probing of oscillating surfaces by a scanning acoustic tunneling microscope
Abstract The scanning acoustic tunneling microscope (SATM) which is based on a scanning tunneling microscope, is capable of detecting the amplitude and the phase of high-frequency surface acoustic waves (SAWs) as well as the surface topography. For our experiments the SAWs have been excited by interdigital transducers on YZ-LiNbO3 samples.

All-optical scanning acoustic microscope [PDF]
In this thesis a new instrument, the all-optical scanning acoustic microscope (O-SAM) is presented, it is a non contact scanning acoustic microscope (SAM) which uses lasers to both generate and detect surface acoustics waves (SAWs) The non contact nature of the O-SAM overcomes some difficulties associated with conventional SAMs because of the couplant ...
