Photothermal reflectance microscopy : signal contrast in the case of thick and thin grain interfaces in solids
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work a thick interface model is proposed in order to describe the photothermal signal perturbation introduced by grain interfaces. The validity of the model is discussed based upon photothermal reflectance microscopy results obtained on Fe sintered samples. A comparison with the thermal resistance model, which is valid only in the case of thin interfaces, is also presented.

Influence of the probe beam size on the photothermal reflectance signal
The influence of the probe beam size and shape on the photothermal reflectance signal is discussed. An analytical formula for the case of Gaussian power distribution is derived. The potentials of the photothermal microscope for local investigation of thermal parameters of solids and solid structures are outlined using computer simulation.

Photothermal lensing signal was experimentally investigated by using Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) of Nd:YAG laser with energies of E0 = 7, 10, and 15 mJ. The medium used in this experiment was N2 at atmospheric pressure, seeded with NO2 to make the medium more absorbing. The experiment was carried out for optically thin medium (1025 PPM NO2) as well as for an optically thick medium (5125 ...

A general theoretical description of dual-beam photothermallensing spectroscopy is given. The results are valid for most general conditions, that is, for flowing as well as stationary media, for optically thick as well as optically thin media, and also for any transverse modes of incident pump beams
متن کاملPhotothermal deflection spectroscopy and detection.
The theory for a sensitive spectroscopy based on the photothermal deflection of a laser beam is developed. We consider cw and pulsed cases of both transverse and collinear photothermal deflection spectroscopy for solids, liquids, gases, and thin films. The predictions of the theory are experimentally verified, its implications for imaging and microscopy are given, and the sources of noise are a...
متن کاملDisjoining potential and grain boundary premelting in binary alloys
Many grain boundaries (GBs) in crystalline materials develop highly disordered, liquidlike structures at high temperatures. In alloys, this premelting effect can be fueled by solute segregation and can occur at lower temperatures than in single-component systems. A premelted GB can be modeled by a thin liquid layer located between two solid-liquid interfaces interacting by a disjoining potentia...
