Experimental investigations of underwater laser propulsion microspheres based on a tapered fiber propulsion system

An underwater propulsion microsystem is proposed in this work, which employs a nanosecond laser pulse out from the tapered fiber tip. Noteworthily, the system can generate a directional shock wave (or plasma) to propel the polystyrene (PS) microsphere. Through simulation, the shock wave propagation...
