All-Optical Scanning Acoustic Microscope
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 and surface contact involved. This O-SAM al...
متن کاملA scanning acoustic microscope discriminates cancer cells in fluid
Scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) discriminates lesions in sections by assessing the speed of sound (SOS) or attenuation of sound (AOS) through tissues within a few minutes without staining; however, its clinical use in cytological diagnosis is unknown. We applied a thin layer preparation method to observe benign and malignant effusions using SAM. Although SAM is inferior in detecting nuclear ...
متن کاملSolitary surface acoustic waves and bulk solitons in nanosecond and picosecond laser ultrasonics.
Recent achievements of nonlinear acoustics concerning the realization of solitons and solitary waves in crystals and their surfaces attained by nanosecond and picosecond laser ultrasonics are discussed and compared. The corresponding pump-probe setups are described, which allow an all-optical contact-free excitation and detection of short strain pulses in the broad frequency range between 10 MH...
متن کاملPicosecond Ultrasonics: a Technique Destined for BAW Technology
Since the 80’s, Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) resonators technology has been seeing a rapid expansion, due to its potentials in terms of performances and integration for Radio-Frequency (RF) filtering. The control of the frequency is a challenging question for the mass production of such devices, and passes through an accurate control of mechanical properties of the whole stack. The picosecond ultra...
متن کاملRa Yleigh Wave Velocity Mapping Using Scanning Acoustic Microscope
In a Scanning Acoustic Microscope (SAM) amplitude of focused acoustic beam reflected by a sample is utilized to produce acoustic images and to measure local elastic property for effective nondestructive characterization of materials. The most important acoustic rays involved in both imaging and quantitative measurements in an acoustic lens are shown in Fig.l. The extra contribution to the refle...
