Plasma line emission during single-bubble cavitation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Emission lines from transitions between high-energy states of noble-gas atoms (Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe) and ions (Ar(+), Kr(+), and Xe(+)) formed and excited during single-bubble cavitation in sulfuric acid are reported. The excited states responsible for these emission lines range 8.3 eV (for Xe) to 37.1 eV (for Ar(+)) above the respective ground states. Observation of emission lines allows for identification of intracavity species responsible for light emission; the populated energy levels indicate the plasma generated during cavitation is comprised of highly energetic particles.

Extreme conditions during multibubble cavitation: Sonoluminescence as a spectroscopic probe.
We review recent work on the use of sonoluminescence (SL) to probe spectroscopically the conditions created during cavitation, both in clouds of collapsing bubbles (multibubble sonoluminescence, (MBSL)) and in single bubble events. The effective MBSL temperature can be controlled by the vapor pressure of the liquid or the thermal conductivity of the dissolved gas over a range from ∼1600 to ∼900...
متن کاملLuminescence from Spherically and Aspherically Collapsing Laser Induced Bubbles
Light emission from bubbles in liquids has received increased attention with the advent of single bubble levitation in sound fields [1]. In this Letter we present investigations of the light emission from single collapsing cavitation bubbles: single cavitation bubble luminescence (SCBL). Our method makes use of focused laser light to produce largely empty bubbles in a liquid, a method used earl...
متن کاملCavitation Thermometry Using Molecular and Continuum Sonoluminescence
The use of molecular and continuum emission spectra from multiple bubble (MB) and single bubble (SB) sonoluminescence (SL) is explored as a probe of bubble temperature during cavitational collapse. It is proposed that molecular and continuum SL arise from different chemical pathways, which occur during discrete intervals along the cavitational collapse time line, thus yielding different cavitat...
متن کاملProbing luminescence from nonspherical bubble collapse
The luminescence from single laser produced cavitation bubbles for varying degrees of asphericity is investigated temporally, spatially, and spectrally. The degree of asphericity is controlled with an adjustable rigid boundary near the bubble. Temporally, single and multiple light emission events happen during a time interval of 80 ns. The luminescence duration increases with increasing aspheri...
متن کاملDynamics of laser-induced cavitation bubbles
Single cavitation bubble luminescence induced by laser in contrast to single bubble sonoluminescence has no need in a sound field for a strong collapse and for light emission. The cavitation bubbles are produced by focused laser light and make the single strong collapse. As shown experimentally, the number of emitted photons from cavitation luminescence is much greater than it was observed in s...
