The time evolution of bulk and surface acoustic wafes in synthetic opals with different sintering is detected by the changes of reflectivity. The opal system is a three dimensional array of close packed silica spheres with approximately 350nm diameter. It is known to provide a photonic stopband in the near infra red and also posses a full three dimensional phononic band gap in the GHz range. An acoustic puls is injected into the opal by a thermo-elastic transducer from a 800nm 150fs Ti:Sa laser puls. The changes of the reflectivity due to acoustic excitation of the opal are sampled by a probe pulse from the same laser. The main result of our measurments is the observation of a long-living acoustic mode corresponding to the first band gap of the phononic crystal with weak sintering. There is no observation of a long living mode in an opal with stronger sintering according to theory predictions.
