Abstract
Over the past two years transmission and reflection scanning acoustic microscopes have been built at Oxford in collaboration with AERE Harwell. The purpose of our work is to discover applications in materials studies for which acoustic microscopy is suitable, and then to exploit the technique in tackling problems in those areas. The microscopes have been operating for a little under one year now, and in these Proceedings we summarise our progress in that time.
