Paper Abstract

The efficiency of optical to acoustical energy conversion during laser-induced optical breakdown has been examined. A point-explosion model has been studied to determine the value of laser-induced shock wave energy. The influence of incoming laser-pulse energy on conversion efficiency has been studied for several absorber materials.
