Abstract
Observations of acoustic interruption of x‐ray transmission through a high‐quality silicon crystal with a low dislocation density are described. Borrmann x‐ray topographs are used to visualize the acoustic strain field. Meausrements were made of the variation of x‐ray transmission vs acoustic power. The possible application of this effect as a fast acousto‐optic switch mechanism is discussed.Keywords
