Detection of thermal waves through optical reflectance

Rosencwaig, Allan, Opsal, Jon, Smith, W. L., Willenborg, D. L.·1985·Applied Physics Letters

Abstract

We show that thermal wave detection and analysis can be performed, in a noncontact and highly sensitive manner, through the dependence of sample optical reflectance on temperature. Applications to the study of microelectronic materials are illustrated by an example of measuring the thickness of thin metal films.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
