5 Foundations of photothermal materials testing 5.1 Physical foundations 5.1.1 Thermal waves The concept "thermal wave(s)" describes a spatially and temporally variable temperature field that is generated in a body by time-dependent heating. Besides the concept thermal wave the term "temperature wave" is also used in technical literature. The excitation of the spatiotemporally variable temperature field mathematically described by a diffusion equation - the heat conduction equation - can occur in the one limiting case periodic-harmonically and in the other limiting case pulsed.
The physical foundations [1], [5], [6], [7] can be derived both for the harmonic excitation and for the pulsed excitation, and are related by a Fourier transformation. This clause considers primarily the harmonic excitation; the derivation for the pulsed excitation can be found in [8].

The thermal effusivity (thermal penetration coefficient), e, is given by the equation:
ckeρ= (5) and the thermal diffusivity, ., is given by the equation: ()ckρα= (6) Accordingly, frequency-dependent measurements of the amplitude and phase of the thermal wave provide depth-resolved information on these combined thermal parameters. In Equations (5) and (6), k is the thermal conductivity, ρ the mass density and c the specific heat capacity. The amplitude of the thermal wave measurable at the surface is proportional to the photothermal efficiency η, which specifies the proportion of the incident radiant power converted into heat. With layered systems the amplitude and the phase shift of the temperature oscillation are determined on the one hand by the ratio of the thermal effusivity of layer and substrate elayer/esubstrate, and on the other hand by the thermal diffusion time for the layer: layerlayerlayerlατ2= (7)

llayer
is the geometrical thickness of the layer; .layer
is the thermal diffusivity of the layer. Given a known value of the thermal diffusivity of the layer and a sufficiently large thermal contrast, describable according to [11] by the thermal reflection coefficient:
substratelayersubstratelayerlseeeeR+−= (8) contactless and non-destructive layer thickness determination is possible by means of thermal waves (see Clause 6). 5.1.2 Thermal Properties The significance of the thermal effusivity and the thermal diffusivity can be made especially clear by means of special time-dependent heating (step function). According to [12], the thermal effusivity e (Equation 5) is a measure of the time-dependent heating of a surface: ()teFtxTπ02,0==∆ (9) where F0 is the constant heat flow absorbed at the surface and ∆T(x = 0,t) represents the heating of the surface at time t after the start of heating. The thermal effusivity determines the contact temperature between bodies and layers having different thermal properties. An example is the contact temperature: ()()212211eeTeTeTcontact+⋅+⋅= (10) occurring at the boundary interface between two semi-infinite bodies having different thermal effusivity e1 and e2 and different initial temperatures T1 and T2, after these bodies have been brought into contact with one another. The thermal diffusivity α (Equation 6) is a measure of the propagation of the temperature through a homogenous body:
