Abstract
Measurements of the amplitude and phase of the normal component of photothermal-optical-beam-deflection signal over a frequency range of 1–100 kHz are in excellent agreement with theoretical calculations for silicon. The results have important implications for applications of optical-beam-deflection in the mirage-effect configuration to imaging of subsurface microstructure.
