Abstract
Spatial distribution of sonochemiluminescence (SCL) from an argon-saturated luminol solution was measured in a focused sound field at 1 MHz in a standing-wave configuration. The SCL distribution was confined to pre-focal region at acoustic powers lower than 0.9 W, and was not located at the focus but at a few mm pre-focal side at a threshold for SCL inception. The threshold pressure amplitude for SCL inception was 3.6 atm at the focus, which value was obtained with a background-oriented schlieren method. The method is based on the broadening of multiple slits due to an optical deflection caused by ultrasound, and the broadening width measured provides an acoustic pressure amplitude. A qualitative image of the focused sound field was also obtained.
