[[Sonoluminescence]] is the emission of short bursts of light from imploding bubbles in a liquid when excited by sound. Sonoluminescence is a phenomenon that occurs when a small gas bubble is acoustically suspended and periodically driven in a liquid solution at ultrasonic frequencies, resulting in bubble collapse, cavitation, and light emission. The thermal energy that is released from the bubble collapse is so great that it can cause weak light emission.<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanism_of_sonoluminescence Sonoluminescense]</ref> | [[Sonoluminescence]] is the emission of short bursts of light from imploding bubbles in a liquid when excited by sound.
