      Photothermal radiometry on nickel (pigmented aluminium oxide) selective solar absorbing surface coatings 

      Othonos, Andreas S.; Nestoros, Marios; Palmerio, D.; Christofides, Constantinos; Bes, R. S.; Traverse, J. P. (1998)
      Photothermal radiometry (PTR) is applied to characterize nickel-pigmented aluminium oxide solar absorbing coatings. A modulated laser beam is used to heat the solar samples. The subsequent emission of thermal radiation is ...

      Progress in photothermal microscopy of YBa2Cu3O7-x 

      Studenmund, W. R.; Fishman, I. M.; Kino, G. S.; Giapintzakis, John (1998)
      We present recent differential optical reflectivity (DOR) measurements obtained at 633 nm (2.OeV), 780 nm (1.6eV), 1064 nm (1.16eV), and 1310nm (0.95 eV). We discuss calibration techniques which can correct for variations ...
