Time-resolved photothermal methods: accessing time-resolved thermodynamics of photoinduced processes in chemistry and biology

摘要

Photothermal methods are currently being employed in a variety of research areas, ranging from materials science to environmental monitoring. Despite the common term which they are collected under, the implementations of these techniques are as diverse as the fields of application. In this review, we concentrate on the recent applications of time-resolved methods in photochemistry and photobiology.
