Abstract: | Measurements of the attenuation of longitudinal sound waves of frequencies between 730 MHz and 1400 MHz were made on a borosilicate glass at temperatures from 0.4 K to 2 K. For high acoustic intensity J the absorption decreases with decreasing temperature. At low temperatures the attenuation is strongly dependent on the acoustic input power and was found to be proportional to indicating a saturation of the absorption. For low acoustic intensities (J ? 2 × 10?7 W/cm2) an increase of the attenuation with decreasing temperature below T < 0.6 K was observed. The experimental results are compared with recent data in vitreous silica and can qualitatively be described by current theories based on a tunneling model. |
