  • Abstract
    A differential phase contrast acoustic microscope is described which compares the responses of adjacent points on the specimen. The improved stability of this measurement permits extended integration periods. Thus we anticipate sensitive measurements of acoustic velocity distributions with the high spatial resolution of the acoustic microscope.
