Abstract

An acoustic characteristic measurement method comprising transmitting into a specimen an ultrasonic probe pulse and a pulse formed by the superposition of the probe pulse centroid on a pump pulse of a lower frequency than that of the probe pulse at a portion where the particle acceleration of the pump pulse is at a peak, receiving reflections of the transmitted signal from two or more reflecting points that are at different depths in the specimen, frequency-analyzing the received signals and obtaining a spectral ratio, and using the spectral ratio to measure the distribution in the specimen of the degree of spectral separation and the crossover frequency.
