Thermoreflectance of metal transducers for optical pump-probe studies of thermal properties
Open accessAbstract
We report measurements of the temperature dependence of the optical reflectivity, dR/dT of fifteen metallic elements at a wavelength of λ = 1.03 μm by time-domain thermoreflectance (TDTR); and the thermoreflectance of thin-films of Pt, Ta, Al, Au, SrRuO(3), and LaNiO(3) over the wavelength range 0.4 < λ < 1.6 μm using variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry. At λ = 1.03 μm, Al, Ta, Re, Ru, have high values of thermoreflectance, dR/dT > 6∙10(-5) K(-1), and are good choices as optical transducers for TDTR experiments using a Yb:fiber laser oscillator. If low optical reflectivity and the associated high degree of steady-state heating are not a concern, LaNiO(3) provides an exceptionally sensitive thermometer in the infrared; (1/R)(dR/dT) > 2.5∙10(-4) K(-1) in the wavelength range 0.85 < λ < 1.3 μm. This compilation of data will assist in the design and interpretation of optical pump-probe studies of thermal properties.

For a Ti:sapphire oscillator centered around 800 nm, an Al thin layer with thickness about 100 nm is a common choice as the transducer layer due to its strong absorption (99% absorption depth <60 nm) and exceptionally large thermoreflectance coefficient dR/dT ~10−4 K−1 at 800 nm.

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.
