Submicrometer resolution images of absorbance and thermal diffusivity with the photothermal microscope.
The photothermal microscope is a laser-based technique which utilizes the crossed-beam thermal lens to measure simultaneously both absorbance and thermal diffusivity within small probe volumes. The microscope provides images with spatial resolution better than 1microm(3) in a simple optical design. High resolution images of histological and botanical samples are presented.
