Title:
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING AT LEAST ONE THERMAL PROPERTY OF A SAMPLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/102540
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Embodiments disclosed herein relate to methods and systems for determining thermal properties of materials by using frequency modulated pump light intensity to cyclically heat a sample, and using probe light to induce fluorescent signals from fluorescent indicators on the surface of the material during the cyclic 5 heating. The methods and systems utilize the phase delay between the frequency modulated pump light and the corresponding fluorescent signals to determine the thermal properties of the material at one or more locations on the material sample.
