The first book devoted to laser techniques in the generation and reception of ultrasonic waves in materials, this practical resource presents the state of the art in all fields involving both lasers and ultrasonics. After an introduction to ultrasonics and laser technology, the book reviews various acousto-optic devices, noninterferometric optical methods, and opto-acoustic techniques. It also discusses applications of laser-generated ultrasound, both by itself and in combination with laser interferometric reception to form an entirely remote and non-contact measurement and testing system. The book concludes with the future developments and uses of laser techniques in ultrasonics, with particular reference to nondestructive testing.
