Visualization of acoustic fields in surface acoustic wave devices by means of X-ray topography

Reflection X-ray topographs from acousto-optic devices were measured under surface acoustic wave excitation. Enhanced sensitivity to small ultrasound amplitudes was achieved when the ultrasound wavelength was shorter than the X-ray extinction length. Under this condition an X-ray diffraction image o...

Description
Summary:Reflection X-ray topographs from acousto-optic devices were measured under surface acoustic wave excitation. Enhanced sensitivity to small ultrasound amplitudes was achieved when the ultrasound wavelength was shorter than the X-ray extinction length. Under this condition an X-ray diffraction image of a high-frequency traveling surface acoustic wave was obtained despite the strains in the device caused by microelectronic processing.
