A Reflective Nonlinear Acoustic Microscope to Contour the Quantitative Adhesion at a Bonded Solid-Solid Interface

We set up a reflective nonlinear acoustic microscope to contour the quantitative adhesion at a bonded solid-solid interface by a contact acoustic nonlinearity (CAN) method. The principle of the reflective nonlinear acoustic microscope is described. After the vibration amplitude of the incident, focusing wave at the bonded interface is calculated, the standard adhesion with a complete bonding state is established by the tension test, the reflective CAN parameter is calibrated, and the quantitative contour of the adhesion at the interface can be obtained. The experimental contours of two samples are also presented. Compared with the transmitted microscope, the reflective one is more convenient and more suitable for practical applications.
