What Techniques are Used to Enhance Nanoscale Thermography?
To address the challenges, several advanced techniques have been developed:
Near-field Scanning Thermal Microscopy (NSThM): This technique combines a thermal probe with an atomic force microscope to achieve high-resolution thermal imaging at the nanoscale. Raman Thermometry: By analyzing the shift in Raman spectra, this method provides temperature measurements with high spatial resolution. Photothermal Microscopy: This technique measures the changes in optical properties of materials due to localized heating, offering an indirect approach to nanoscale thermography.
