Interferometric analysis of cylindrically focused laser-driven shock waves in a thin liquid layer

We apply time-resolved interferometric imaging to study laser-driven focused shock waves on the microscale. Shock waves are generated in a 10 μm-thick layer of water by sub-nanosecond laser pulses focused into a ring of 100 μm radius. Imaging is performed with a Mach-Zehnder interferometer by time-d...
