Abstract(in English) We developed a method of measuring UHF-range longitudinal acoustic properties of both solid specimens and liquid specimens by a plane-wave ultrasonic material characterization system, in which the liquid coupler or liquid employed with a thickness of less than 1μm. In order to obtain an accurate thickness of the liquid layer, we measured a dip-frequency, where a reflection coefficient at the thin liquid layer became minimum value. In previous experiments, we used the thickness of λ_d/2 (λ_d : wavelength of ultrasonic wave in the thin liquid layer at a frequency of f_d which is in a measurement frequency band). In this condition, only one dip existed in the measurement frequency band. However, when we want to measure a viscous specimen or biological tissue, and when we want to measure in high frequency, it would be difficult to make the layer thin. In this paper, we investigated a measurement using a relatively thick liquid layers. In this case, several dip-frequencies will exist in the measurement frequency band. Our calculation results show that we can apply this measurement to the thicker liquid layer successfully. This method has a prospect that it can apply to various materials and high frequency range.
