Laser optoacoustics and immersion techniques allowed a broadband ultrasound spectroscopy which was used for measuring the attenuation of severely plastically deformed nickel. A disk shaped specimen of nickel of about 33 mm diameter and 2.5 mm thickness was prepared by the high pressure torsion method. The produced equivalent shear strain linearly increased from a minimum at the center up to 1000% at the edge, gradually refining the grain size distribution down to 200 nm. The metal water interface was illuminated by 5 ns laser pulses, generating longitudinal ultrasound pulses with a pronounced compression phase and a smooth spectrum covering the range from 0.1 up to 150 MHz. The laser beam spot diameter was 6 mm, yielding a maximum power density below 15 MW/cm2. The ultrasound passed through the sample thickness and a 2 mm layer of coupling water. The pulse was detected by a 25 μm thick piezoelectric foil transducer with a diameter of the sensitive area of 2 mm. The transient signals were locally measured at different radii of the specimen. The attenuation almost linearly increases with frequency while its absolute value decreases from the center to the edge of the specimen. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
