Abstract
De Haas–van Alphen type oscillations have been observed in the acousto-magnetic attenuation of zinc. The oscillations were observed only for specific modes and direction of propagation with a field strength greater than 20.0 k oersteds. Periods in δ(1/H) of 2.1 ± 0.05, 0.3 ± 0.1 and 7.0 ± 1.0 × 10−6 oersteds−1 were measured; these data are in excellent agreement with the magnetic data of Verkin and Dmitrenko (1955).
