The reso lu t ion of an u l t r a son ic c a m e r a is se t by the th ick- ness of the p i ezoe lec t r i c c r y s t a l and by the acous t ic opt ics . Maximum reso lu t ion is obtained when the incident sound pa t t e rn does not devia te m o r e than 2 ° f rom the beam axis . With p r e s e n t f r equenc i e s (up to approx imate ly 15MHz) the s m a l l e s t r e so lvab le object is approx imate ly 0 .34mm. It is thought that with the advent of the deplet ion l aye r t r a n s d u c e r s f r equenc ie s of up to 3GHz will be able to be used but then the reso lu t ion will be d e t e r m i n e d by the e l ec t ron beam d i a m e t e r which is at p r e s e n t approx imate ly 20~m.

A novel method of imaging the phase and ampl i tude of the c r o s s - s e c t i o n of an u l t r a s o n i c beam is r epor t ed . Because the phase is r e t a ined in the acous to -op t i ca l conve r s ion p r o c e s s an image of any chosen c r o s s - s e c t i o n of the beam can be obtained by opt ical manipu la t ions and r ep roduced on a s c r e e n or a photographic plate.
