Title: Measurement of thermal transport using time-resolved thermal wave microscopy

Journal Article · · Journal of Applied Physics
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.3653829· OSTI ID:1030677

A theoretical and experimental analysis of time-resolved thermal wave microscopy (TRTWM) technique used for thermal wave imaging is presented. TRTWM combines the elements of both frequency and time domain laser based thermoreflectance approaches widely used for thermal wave imaging and measurement of thermal transport. An analytical thermal wave model used for analysis is described and compared to experimental results. Implementation of TRTWM to measure thermal conductivities of materials of interest is demonstrated.
