Proton Transport and Ultrasonic Diagnostics of Crystalline Materials and Compounds

Abstract

The effect of supersonic vibration on the spectrum of dielectric losses is studied for electrical engineering and laser materials with proton conductivity. Simulta neous impact of ultrasonic vibrations, alternating electric field and temperature results in absorption of ultrasonic vibration quanta. The width of the potential barrier pulsates and is reduced by 2 - 3.5% thus making proton tunneling more probable. We propose a non-destructive method of quality control and determination of condition of crystalline materials and adhesive joints of the materials with a proton type of conductivity, the time of analysis being dramatically decreased from 14 - 28 days (according to GOST 12175-90) to one hour.
