Scanning acoustic interference microscope with wedge delay line

Abstract
The variable acoustic delay line employing a wedge can be successfully introduced to accomplish a novel interference microscope. This interference microscope can be easily established only by substituting a wedge for the specimen mount in the conventional scanning acoustic microscope. The acoustic velocity of as-sputtered ZnO film is measured with this microscope at a frequency of 150 MHz. The acoustic velocity of a longitudinal wave along the c-axis in the ZnO film is determined to be 6.3 km/s.
