Ultrasonic Absorption in Fused Chlorides

Ultrasonic Absorption Microscope

This paper constitutes a progress rersort on the develol•ment of an ultrasonic instrument for detecting microstructure. The principle of operation of the device (designated by the term "ultrasonic microscope") is as follows: The specimen is imbedded in a liquid, which closely matches it in acoustic impedance, and is irradiated with sho•t pulses of highdreqnency hound. Some of the ultrasonic ene...

Ultrasonic absorption and attenuation in mammalian tissues.

-The ultrasonic absorption was determined, by the transient thermoelectric method, for brain, heart, kidney, liver, tendon, and testis from cat, mouse, pig and beef. Comparison of these absorption {a) values with published values of attenuation (A) shows: (1) that the a and A coefficients have nearly the same frequency dependencies in the range 0.5-7 MHz, (2) that the magnitudes of a and A diff...

Femtosecond laser absorption in fused silica: Numerical and experimental investigation

Single pulse transmissivity and reflectivity of fused silica irradiated by tightly focused 90 fs laser pulses at a center wavelength of 800 nm are numerically and experimentally investigated to study the role of nonlinear photoionization and avalanche ionization processes in free electron generation. The laser beam inside fused silica is modeled with a 2+1 -dimensional propagation equation whic...
