Zusammenfassung: | A conical ultrasonic wave deflection system has an ultrasonic transducer for ultrasonic microscopy using surface waves and/or Lamb waves in an object. A conical wave front is directed onto the object via a deflection element. An inactive axial circular disk is provided between the ultrasonic transducer and the object to minimize unnecessary interference from undeflected waves. A frustoconical lens with a blocked top face, or a conical metal reflector with a ring transducer on the transducer side can be provided as the deflection element. The arrangement is highly compatible with ultrasonic microscopes. Matching to a critical angle theta of the object is achieved by selection of the appropriate ultrasonic frequency. |
