The reflection acoustic microscope has been used to measure SAW velocity dispersion and to indirectly measure the film thickness in a layered composite consisting of Au on a Si substrate. A quantitative thickness determination was made via the acoustic material signature technique, that is nondestructive and noncontacting. A theoretical prediction of SAW dispersion is in excellent agreement with these measurements.
