Thermal Brillouin Scattering Study of the Attenuation of Hypersound in Quartz

  • Conference paper
Light Scattering Spectra of Solids

Abstract

The velocity and attenuation of 28 GHz longitudinal phonons along the X-axis of α-quartz have been measured in a temperature range from 100° to 600 °K. High resolution Brillouin scattering techniques are employed in this regime where conventional ultrasonics methods are not applicable.

Operated with support from the U. S. Air Force.
