Photo-Thermal Spectroscopy with Plasmonic and Rare-Earth Doped (Nano)Materials: Basic Principles and Applications

by Ali Rafiei Miandashti, Eva Yazmin Santiago, Susil Baral

This book highlights the theoretical foundations of and experimental techniques in photothermal heating and applications involving nanoscale heat generation using gold nanostructures embedded in various media. The experimental techniques presented involve a combination of nanothermometers doped with rare-earth atoms, plasmonic heaters and near-field microscopy. The theoretical foundations are based on the Maxwell's and heat diffusion equations...
