A photothermal ”mirage” imaging system
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a scanning mirage microscope system that uses a diode probe laser. The sample is raster scanned using X-Y motorised microstepping stages under an Ar+ pump beam to give two dimensional scans and depth profiles. The results for a test sample are given and are compared to that obtained by scanning using a conventional large photoacoustic (PA) cell.

A new technique has been developed for amplification of the photothermal beam deflection angle for mirage detection. This technique, based on a very simple operating principle, uses a cylindrical reflection mirror. The use of a new amplifier provided a signal-to-noise ratio approximately 10 times that obtained without the amplifier for equipment of the same size. By using the new amplifier, a m...
