Electric sonic amplitude



Electric sonic amplitude is an electroacoustic phenomena that is reverse to colloid vibration current. It occurs in colloids, emulsions and other heterogeneous fluids under influence of oscillating electric field. This field moves particles relative to the liquid, which generates ultrasound.

Electric sonic amplitude was experimentally discovered by Cannon with co-authors in early 1980’s.[1] It is also widely used for characterizing ζ-potential in dispersions and emulsions. There is review of this effect theory, experimental verification and multiple applications published by Hunter.[2]
