Quantitative assessment of radiation force effect at the dielectric air-liquid interface

Abstract: We induce nanometer-scale surface deformation by exploiting momentum conservation of the interaction between laser light and dielectric liquids. The effect of radiation force at the air-liquid interface is quantitatively assessed for fluids with different density, viscosity and surface tension. The imparted pressure on the liquids by continuous or pulsed laser light excitation is fully described by the Helmholtz electromagnetic force density.

“…The photothermal mirror (TM) spectrometry detects the deformation of the illuminated surface by analyzing the focusing or defocusing of the reflected probe beam in the far field region [8][9][10][11][12]. TM measures a convoluted signal arising from the wavefront distortion caused by the probed surface of the sample in addition to the phase shift created by heat-coupling in the fluid surrounding the sample.…”

“…This method has been recently introduced under pulsed Gaussian laser excitation for the measurement of thermal diffusivity and thermo-optical properties of semi-transparent and opaque solids [8,9] and for the detection of thermoelastic waves launched by a localized heat deposition [13][14][15]. This method has also been used to detect surface displacements induced by radiation pressure at air-liquids interfaces [11,12].…”

“…12,13 Using a slightly different experimental approach, this method was also employed to measure the surface deformation induced by radiation pressure at air-liquid interfaces induced by continuous and pulsed laser excitation. 19,20 Here we show, for pulsed laser excitation in metals, that the launched elastic waves propagate on the surface and within the solids generating convoluted photothermal mirror signals following the thermo-mechanical properties of the sample. The elastic waves are predicted by the numerical solution of the thermoelastic equation and have properties closely related to the familiar elastic waves created by an isotropic point-expansion source on the surface of solids.…”

“…In ultrasonic research and associated applications, it is essential for interpreting measurements and understanding the underlying physical mechanisms. Due to recent strides in fundamental research, particularly regarding the measuring of light-pressure-induced ultrasound [1,2] and the so-called Abraham-Minkowski controversy [3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11], laser ultrasound modeling is gaining a new momentum and a novel aspect in its applicability.…”
