Elastic stress waves generated in a pressure bar by in-depth absorption of laser energy were measured using a thin piezoelectric quartz crystal. The experimental results showed very good quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions based on Love's modified wave equation. Higher modes of wave propagation not predicted by the one-dimensional theory were evident in the experimental results.
