Interaction between a bubble and a metal target for underwater laser propulsion

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Optical beam deflection and high-speed photographic methods are employed to investigate the interaction mechanism between a laser-induced bubble and a metal target for underwater laser propulsion. A preliminary theory is proposed to reveal the step increases of the kinetic energy transferred to the target during the process of increasing the incident laser energy. This theory also helps to explain the increasing coupling efficiency with incident laser energy for underwater laser propulsion.
