Diffraction of light by a focused ultrasonic wave
The measurement of the acoustic pressure of a planar ultrasonic wave by light diffraction is well established. The ability to do similar measurements in the case of spherical waves has been doubted However, we show that the range of validity can be extended to the focal region of a spherical concave piezoelectric transducer. Light is passed through the focal plane of a spherical concave transdu...
متن کاملDiffraction of Ultrasonic Waves by Elliptical Cracks in Metals
Ultrasonic spectrum analysis is used to study the frequency and angular behavior of diffracted longitudinal waves from elliptical cracks with arbitrary orientation in diffusion bonded titanium alloy. The aspect ratio of the cracks (ratio of major to minor axis) ranged from l to 8 and the bandwidth of the input signal was such that the scattering diameter was ka > l. The experimental data are an...
متن کاملOn the Diffraction of Light by Ultrasonic Wave
The partial differential equation for the wave function in the problem of the diffraction of light by an ultrasonic wave is derived as the result of transformations and related approximations of the electrical field equation itself. It is shown that this way of treating the diffraction problem is equivalent to the generating function method applied to the Raman-Nath system of difference-differe...
متن کاملCoherent Control of Atomic Beam Diffraction by Standing Light Waves
Quantum interference is shown to deliver a means of regulating the diffraction pattern of a thermal atomic beam interacting with two standing wave electric fields. Parameters have been identified to enhance the diffraction probability of one momentum component over the others, with specific application to Rb atoms. PACS number(s): 32.80 Qk, 34.50 Dy, 39.20 +q, 39.25 +k, 03.75 Dg Typeset using R...
متن کاملDiffraction and Interference of Plane Light Waves
In this experiment you will become familiar with diffraction patterns created when a beam of light scatters from objects placed in its path. Such experiments were important historically as they were crucial in establishing the wave nature of light in face of competing theories that described light in terms of geometrical rays of discrete objects. Only a wave theory can give a quantitative expla...
