Phase-controlled, heterodyne laser-induced transient grating measurements of thermal transport properties in opaque material

The methodology for a heterodyned laser-induced transient thermal grating technique for non-contact, non-destructive measurements of thermal transport in opaque material is presented. Phase-controlled heterodyne detection allows us to isolate pure phase or amplitude transient grating signal contribu...
