In this work we present results of the analysis of thermal properties of high-power laser bars obtained by spatially resolved thermoreflectance (TR) spectroscopy. Thermoreflectance is a modulation technique relying on periodic facet…
Phase recovery (PR) refers to calculating the phase of the light field from its intensity measurements. As exemplified from quantitative phase imaging and coherent diffraction imaging to adaptive optics, PR is essential for reconstructing…
Time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR) is a well-established pump/probe method for measuring thermal conductivity and interface conductance of multilayers. Interpreting signals in a TDTR experiment requires a thermal model.In standard…
Photoreflectance is used for the characterisation of semiconductor samples, usually by sweeping the monochromatized probe beam within the energy range comprised between the highest value set by the pump beam and the lowest absorption…
We present multispectral rendering techniques for visualizing layered materials found in biological specimens. We are the first to use acquired data from the near-infrared and ultraviolet spectra for non-photorealistic rendering (NPR).…
Thermoreflectance techniques, including time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR), frequency-domain thermoreflectance (FDTR), and the square-pulsed source (SPS) method, are powerful tools for characterizing the thermal properties of bulk and…
Spatial mapping of thermal properties is critical for unveiling the structure-property relation of materials, heterogeneous interfaces, and devices. These property images can also serve as datasets for training artificial intelligence…
The Kerr parametric oscillator (KPO) has recently attracted considerable attention from the perspective of its applications to quantum information processing, and understanding its properties is an important challenge. Spectroscopic…

Anti-reflective coatings (ARCs) are used on the vast majority of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules to increase power production. However, ARC longevity can vary from less than 1 year to over 15 years depending on coating quality and…
Reflectometry is a technique that uses the light reflected by a sample to determine properties of the sample. Interferometric reflectometry uses interference between two beams, one of which is incident on ---and reflected back by--- a…
In the previous studies, the ultraviolet light thermoreflectance (UV-TDTR) signal from bulk semiconducting samples cannot be well explained by a thermal models based on the assumption that the heat is both absorbed and probed near the…
Measuring thermal properties of materials is not only of fundamental importance in understanding the transport processes of energy carriers (electrons and phonons) but also of practical interest in developing novel materials with desired…
Photoplasticity, the light-induced change in plastic deformation, plays a pivotal role in the mechanical durability and manufacturing of semiconductor materials. Yet, its governing mechanisms remain incompletely understood, owing to the…
Optical spectroscopy techniques such as differential reflectance and transmittance have proven to be very powerful techniques to study 2D materials. However, a thorough description of the experimental setups needed to carry out these…
Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) offers a powerful tool for label-free and non-invasive characterization of biomolecular interactions. To date, several experimental configurations, based on two fundamental physical phenomena, e.g.,…
