Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Generation of ultrasound waves in aluminum utilizing evanescent light during total internal reflection at prism surface is investigated. It has been found that ultrasound can be generated in the aluminum specimen only by the evanescent light. The amplitudes of ultrasound generated by evanescent light were approximately 9 times larger than that generated by direct laser irradiation. The obtained directivity pattern shows considerable intensity at 0°, which reveals that the ultrasound in this experiment is generated by ablation effect. According to the theoretical speculation, when the plasma is generated by laser irradiation in confined geometry, its impulse pressure is significantly enhanced.
