Ultrasound pulse generation through continuous-wave laser excited thermo-cavitation for all-optical ultrasound imaging

The optical generation of pulsed ultrasound is attractive to nondestructive testing and biological imaging, especially for those involving narrow operation space or strong electro-magnetic interference. However, conventional techniques based on the photoacoustic effect inevitably required an expensi...
