Abstract

Photopyroelectric spectroscopy (P2ES) has recently emerged as a simple, powerful photothermal technique for the spectroscopic study of condensed phase materials [1–6]. Pyroelectric thin-film sensors, such as polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) [7], have proven to be capable of providing high SNR, high quality spectra of thin-film materials [1,4,8], as well as spectra of condensed phase samples in the thickness range above 200 µm [3].
