Figure Lengend Snippet: (a) High-speed sequence of the first oscillation of a cavitation bubble generated close to a solid boundary in side view in the cavitation erosion regime. The timestamp t = 0 is defined as the frame closest to the bubble generation. Then, the bubble reaches maximum size after 46 μ s, and collapses in a toroidal shape at t = 95 μ s . The toroidal shape close to collapse is only visible in normal view, e.g., . The scale bar is 400 μ m . The whole video is presented in Supplementary Movie 1, and a higher frame rate video of a similar event in Supplementary Movie 2. (b) Normalized light intensity emitted during bubble collapse near a boundary as a function of the non-dimensional distance γ with added erosion rate measurements from for comparison. In inset, representation of the non-dimensional distance parameter γ = h / R max in the experiment, where h is the distance of the laser focus from the boundary, and R max the bubble radius at maximum expansion, measured perpendicular to the surface.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Bubble collapses in close proximity of a quartz surface ( γ = 0 . 11 ± 0 . 01 ), leading to erosion and sonoluminescence. (a) High-speed camera frames leading to the bubble collapse with shock wave and sonoluminescence emission, as well as the separately detected positions of erosion marked with red arrows. The timing of the earlier illumination pulse in the frame closest to the collapse is a zero reference in relation to the ToA measurements (shown in overlay), denoted using a 0* sign. (b) and (c) High-speed camera frames closest to collapse for two different events at the same experimental setting, but with different outcomes compared to (a) due to significant statistical variations. Relative timings of collapses and sonoluminescence light time of arrival (ToA - from TPX3CAM, see text) are as following for each collapse spot: (a) Top: –30 ns & –35 ns; Bottom: –10 ns & 0 ns; (b) Top: 0 ns & –; Bottom: 40 ns & 40 ns; (c) Top: –60 ns & –50 ns; Bottom: 20 ns & –. The number pairs are always formed as “collapse timing & ToA”. The precision of collapse timing measurement is ± 10 ns , the precision of ToA ± 5 ns , and – signifies no data point available. The corresponding videos in normal-view (5 MHz framing rate) and side-view (144 kHz framing rate) are presented in Supplementary Movies 3–8.
