SOME RECENT ADVANCES IN MICROWAVE PHONON GENERATION AND DETECTION WITH APPLICATIONS TO THE STUDY OF PHONON-LATTICE INTERACTIONS IN DIELECTRIC MATERIALS.

Abstract

Some recent advances in phonon generation and detection in the gigacycle region are described. The technique, as applied to quartz, has been extended to non-piezoelectric materials by the use of vapor deposited thin film piezoelectric transducers. Attenuation measurements in quartz, MgO, TiO2 and Al2O3 are described and discussed. A theory for the behavior of attenuation as a function of temperature is also given. (Author)
