Abstract

This chapter introduces optical characterization of surface vibrations and wave propagation using scanning laser interferometry. The waves are excited electrically and detected utilizing optical interferometry in frequency domain. Homodyne and heterodyne optical setups and interferometric detection principle are introduced, and the capabilities and limitations of the technique are briefly discussed. Application of the frequency-domain technique into phononic crystal research is illustrated by providing examples of wave field characterization and data analysis for surface acoustic and bulk acoustic wave propagation and behavior in phononic crystals and acoustic metamaterials.
