T. Toyoda et al., NONLINEAR RESPONSE OF PHOTOTHERMAL AND OPTICAL-ABSORPTION FOR ERYTHROSINE-B DYE IN EPOXY-RESIN, Journal de physique. IV, 4(C7), 1994, pp. 357-360
Photothermal measurement using thermistor is applied to study the heat
generation by nonradiative processes in erythrosine B dye in epoxy re
sin. It shows that the incident light intensity dependence of heat gen
eration using an Ar ion laser is nonlinear and corresponds to that for
the transmission of erythrosine B in epoxy resin. The increase of the
signal intensity of the heat generation is different from that of tot
al rate of optical energy absorption.
