Abstract

The capability of photo-electromotiveforce (EMF) sensors to monitor high-speed targets was experimentally demonstrated. Q-switched, frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser with pulse width of 10 ns and 10 Hz repetition rate was used. Neutral density filters were used to attenuate the laser power to avoid saturation of electronic circuit detection. Single-shot (∼10 ns) measurement of target speed was achieved and photo-EMF sensor was able to detect air jet speeds in excess of 100 m/s.
