Journal ArticleDOI
Fundamentals of picosecond laser ultrasonics
TL;DR: An introduction to picosecond laser ultrasonics, a means by which gigahertz-terahertz ultrasonic waves can be generated and detected by ultrashort light pulses, which can be used to characterize materials with nanometer spatial resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coherent Shear Phonon Generation and Detection with Ultrashort Optical Pulses
TL;DR: Using an optical technique, picosecond shear and quasishear coherent acoustic phonon pulses in the time domain are generated and detected and efficient detection in isotropic and anisotropic media with various optical incidence geometries is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Picosecond acoustic phonon pulse generation in nickel and chromium
TL;DR: In this paper, the generation mechanisms for picosecond acoustic phonon pulses excited by ultrashort optical pulses in metals with strong electron-phonon coupling were elucidated.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, an improved two-dimensional optical scanning technique combined with an ultrafast Sagnac interferometer for delayed-probe imaging of surface wave propagation is described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafast carrier diffusion in gallium arsenide probed with picosecond acoustic pulses
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe an experimental investigation of the generation and detection of picosecond acoustic-phonon pulses in a thin slab of GaAs using ultrashort optical pulses.
