Journal ArticleDOI
Laser interferometer for measuring high velocities of any reflecting surface
Lynn M. Barker,R. E. Hollenbach +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a laser velocity interferometer instrumentation system was developed which can measure the velocity history of either spectrally or diffusely reflecting surfaces, and achieved accuracies of 2% or better for peak surface velocities of 0.2 mm/μsec.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical Detection of Ultrasound
TL;DR: A review of the various optical methods to detect ultrasound at the surface of opaque solids is presented, including description of knife-edge techniques, optical heterodyning, differential interferometry, and velocity (time-delay) interferometer methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of interface strength by a laser spallation technique
TL;DR: In this article, a laser spallation experiment has been developed to measure the strength of planar interfaces between a substrate and a thin coating (in the thickness range of 0.3-3 μm).
Journal ArticleDOI
A combined normal‐ and transverse‐displacement interferometer with an application to impact of y‐cut quartz
TL;DR: In this paper, a transverse displacement inteferometer (TDI) was used to monitor the transverse motion of the rear surface of a ycut quartz target plate in a plate-impact experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of interface strength by laser-pulse-induced spallation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a piezoelectric crystal probe to map out the profile of the stress pulse generated by the laser pulse, which is verified by a computer simulation of the process.

Shock‐Wave Studies of PMMA, Fused Silica, and Sapphire
Lynn M. Barker,R. E. Hollenbach +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the shock wave propagation characteristics of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), fused silica, and sapphire for both compressive and rarefaction waves using plate-impact experiments and interferometer instrumentation techniques.
