A three-dimensional theory of a mirage-effect technique for measuring thermal diffusivity of solids is presented. A formula that incorporates sizes and separations of the heating and probe beams; the height of the probe beam above the sample surface; the thermal properties of the sample, the gas, and the backing; and the thickness of the sample is developed. The results are compared with experiments on a bulk sample and on thin slabs of various thicknesses.

A mirage-effect thermal-wave method for the measurement of thermal diffusivities of solids is described. Data from two different laboratories are provided for various pure elements and compound semiconductor materials. In most cases the agreement with literature values is good.

Errors are noted in two publications on the theory for Mirage-effect measurements of the thermal diffusivity of materials. The works include theory for interpreting Mirage experiments on homogeneous samples mounted on a support with ambient (typically air) above and theory for interpreting Mirage experiments on coated substrates with ambient both above and below.
