Sonoluminescence is called a phenomenon in which a gas bubble is trapped in an antinode of a pressure field by a driven periodic acoustical field in a fluid and oscillations and at the end of each collapse, emits a flash. For this emission various conditions for stability must be satisfied, like diffusion stability, shape stability and positional stability. Another method to produce the bubbles is applications of a focused laser beam. In this method, a laser pulse is focused into a transparent buffer liquid like water and bubbles which are induced by the laser are so called Laser Induced Single Cavitation Bubble Luminescence (LI-SCBL). In the presence of the laser, the fluid acts as... 

Sonoluminescence is a unique phenomenon in physics, which is known as the process of converting sound into light. By applying sound to a volume of liquid, with a specific geometrical shape (such as sphere) and forming standing waves around an existing bubble, the bubble first expands to a maximum radius and then gets extremely small leading to its supersonic collapse. During the collapse, the resulting shock wave approches the center of the bubble, causing extreme increase in the pressure and temperature at the center of the bubble. This causes flashing of light during small time scales (pico-seconds). This phenomenon is used in many fields, such as treatment of cancer. Also, the energy...
