Acoustic microscopy enables the elastic properties of materials to
be imaged and measured with the resolution of a good microscope. By
using frequencies in the microwave regime, it is possible to make
the acoustic wavelength comparable with the wavelength of light,
and hence to achieve a resolution comparable with an optical
microscope. Solids can support both longitudinal and transverse
acoustic waves. At surfaces a unique combination of the two known
as Raleigh waves can propagate, and in many circumstances these
dominate the contrast in acoustic microscopy. Following the
invention of scanning probe microscopes, it is now possible to use
an atomic force microscope to detect the acoustic vibration of a
surface with resolution in the nanometre range, thus beating the
diffraction limit by operating in the extreme near-field. This
second edition of Acoustic Microscopy has a major new chapter on
the technique and applications of acoustically excited probe
microscopy.
