An ultrasonic transmitter-receiver for radiating a focused ultrasonic beam and a sample are moved relative to each other in the axial direction of the ultrasonic beam. A reflected wave from the sample is received and a curve V(Z) of variations in the level of the reflected wave with respect to the relative movement is obtained. A reference level of interference of a directly reflected wave and a leaky elastic wave is subtracted from V(Z) to perform waveform processing. The waveform processing output is subjected to a waveform analysis, and from the analysis results, the velocity and/or the attenuation of the leaky elastic wave are calculated.

An acoustic microscope using a line-focus acoustic beam is disclosed. The line-focus acoustic beam is generated by an acoustic transducer head having an acoustic transducer electrode applied on a flat end surface of a sapphire rod, in the opposite end surface is formed a cylindrical concave surface. The acoustic transducer head is arranged fixedly above a mechanical stage on which a specimen is placed. The mechanical stage is movable in a Z axis, i.e. an axis of the line-focus acoustic beam and is also rotatable about the Z axis. By moving the stage in the Z-axis, a V(z) curve is obtained and a phase velocity of a leaky surface-acoustic wave is calculated from a repetition period of the V(z) curve. Then the V(z) curve measurement is repeated while the stage is rotated, and it is possible to obtain anisotropies of the specimen expressed by a relation between the rotational angle and the phase velocity of the leaky surface-acoustic wave.
摘要:
A TiO2—SiO2 glass ingot having a desired TiO2 concentration is fabricated, a sample is cut from the TiO2—SiO2 glass ingot, OH concentration C(OH), TiO2 concentration C(TiO2) and fictive temperature TF of the sample are measured, and zero-CTE temperature T(zero-CTE) is calculated from the measured C(OH), C(TiO2) and TF. A judgment is made as to whether the difference ΔT between the zero-CTE temperature T(zero-CTE) and a target value is within a predetermined range. When the difference ΔT is within the predetermined range, it is judged that the TiO2—SiO2 glass ingot has a desired zero-CTE temperature; when the difference ΔT is not within the range, a production condition for the TiO2—SiO2 glass ingot is corrected on the basis of the difference ΔT.
摘要:
By measuring, for an ultra-low-expansion glass material, the frequency dependence of acoustic velocities and attenuation coefficients of bulk waves (longitudinal waves and shear waves), and the density, its fundamental acoustic properties are revealed, and a standard specimen for use in system calibration is prepared. By an absolute calibration method using the standard specimen, absolute values for both the LSAW and LSSCW velocities are obtained. Moreover, there are obtained relationships for the acoustic properties and the coefficient of thermal expansion to evaluate the coefficient of thermal expansion from the acoustic properties. In case there is a distribution of characteristics due to periodic striae, an accurate acoustic property distribution in the substrate can be ascertained and an evaluation performed, by selecting for the substrate a cutting angle with respect to the striae plane.

A heat treatment is performed at different temperatures for a plurality of calibration-line forming optical glass samples that can be considered as having the same composition as optical glass to be measured, any one of the longitudinal wave velocity, the LSAW velocity and the shear wave velocity of the samples is measured as an acoustic property AP1, and a relationship between the fictive temperature Tf and the acoustic property AP1 is determined in the form of approximate straight line formula on the assumption that the heat treatment temperature is regarded as the fictive temperature Tf in a range where the heat treatment temperature and the acoustic property AP1 are in a linear relationship. The acoustic property AP1 of the optical glass to be measured is measured, and the fictive temperature is calculated from the measured acoustic property AP1 according to the approximate straight line formula.
