Metal nanoparticles as nano-sized opto-acoustic transducers
There has been much interest in the optical and mechanical properties of metal nanostructures and the possibility to use them as very high frequency opto-acoustic transducers. This interest stems from the ability of such devices to work as sources of ultrasound when a short optical pulse is used to...
