Title |
High-resolution photothermal laser probe |
Date |
1985 |
Description |
An advance in photothermal imaging is described. A photothermal laser probe is presented that operates at a frequency of 1 GHz. At this frequency the spacial resolution is limited only by the optical spot size of the probe beam. The photothermal sensitivity of the probe is 1.2 X 10-4 degrees Celsius with a 5-mW probe beam and a 1-Hz bandwidth. The theoretical basis for the photothermal sensitivity will be presented along with an experimental description and verification of the theory. High-resolution photothermal images of implanted silicon will also be presented. |
