Brillouin spectroscopy (BS) is a versatile technique to measure acoustic properties at hypersonic frequencies and has been proven to be capable to detect thermally excited surface- and guided acoustic waves at microwave frequencies. BS on microwave induced phonons, generated at the surface of a piezoelectric crystal can be used to determine the hypersonic attenuation from the decay of the Stokes intensity of the BS. Only recently, BS was used for studying acoustic microscopy (BM). It turns out that this new technique is able to characterize the distribution of acoustic fields, generated by inter digital finger structures (IDT) at microwave frequencies in piezoelectric materials. The aim of this talk is to elucidate the efficiency of the electro-acoustic generation of hypersonic waves in thin piezoelectric films including their field properties and especially their spatial decay within the film plane.
