title: A Novel Scheme of Thermographic Microimaging Using Pyro-Magneto-Optical Indicator Films.
abstract: A new method of imaging of temperature distributions is presented. The method is based on the use of a BiLu2 Fe4 GaO12 ferrimagnetic garnet layer as a pyro-magneto-optical detection layer. Thermal imaging with high sensitivity, with micrometer spatial and with millisecond temporal resolution is demonstrated in a contactless read-out scheme.
