A new methodology for mapping thermal diffusivity using a photothermal deflection method is introduced. Two case studies are made: fiber-reinforced composite structures and contact damage zones in alumina. In the former, characterization of thermal microstructural features is demonstrated; in the latter, microcrack density is quantified. Experimental data are analyzed and compared with literature results. Advantages and limitations of the technique are discussed.

ABSTRACTPreparation and characterization of novel dye-doped polyimide films for electrooptics is described. Thermal stabilities of donor-acceptor 2,5-diaryl oxazoles were evaluated by differential scanning calorimetry. Absorptive losses in thin films of Ultradel 9000D® doped with donor-acceptor oxazoles were measured by photothermal deflection spectroscopy. Absorptive losses at high doping levels may be explainable by dye-dye aggregation or dye degradation during the curing process. Lower doping levels, however, show losses of ≤ 3.0 dB/cm at 830 nm and ≤ 2.4 dB/cm at 1320 nm.
