Abstract
The generation of acoustic waves in liquids by the impact of pulses from a hybrid CO2 laser has been studied in detail. With the aid of self‐developed piezoelectric transducers, a pressure saturation with increasing laser peak power has been demonstrated in carbon tetrachloride. This phenomenon is explained by a reduced absorptivity at higher laser power.Keywords
