8 February 2011Sensitive thermal reflectance measurement for laser cooling applications
We demonstrate application of the thermal reflectance measurement in a balanced detector arrangement to resolve
laser induced temperature shifts in ytterbium-doped yttrium-lithium-fluoride (Yb:YLF) during optical refrigeration
experiments. Definite signature of cooling versus heating allows for rapid screening of the performance of the laser
cooling material.
