Thermoreflectance Instrumentation and Methods

Thermoreflectance instruments are generally home-built; they can be difficult to construct, align, and maintain, especially for the novice. The goal of this workshop is to provide practical advice from a pool of institutional knowledge beyond theory. Speakers will share their insights and tips for optimizing thermoreflectance instrument design, methods, and data analysis. Topics will include common measurement techniques (TDTR, FDTR, SSTR), TR-MOKE, and advanced measurement configurations and applications.
Duration: Half-day

Thermoreflectance Methods

This workshop is intended to be an open forum for attendees to share their experience and insight with thermoreflectance based methods. Key topics that will be covered are the underlying principles of these methods, the instrumentation involved, data acquisition and analysis, and the assumptions each method holds. Both traditional and novel implementations will be discussed, so that all listeners and participants can learn something regardless of personal experience with this field of thermophysical property measurements.
