  2. Sensitive Detection of Phase Separation with Femtosecond Thermal Lens Spectroscopy. S. Goswami, S. Singhal, A. Banerjee, and D. Goswami, in 2019 Workshop on Recent Advances in Photonics (WRAP) (2019), pp. 1–2 [Abstract] [BibTeX]

    Abstract: Femtosecond Thermal Lens Spectroscopy (FTLS) has been developed to a level of sensitivity that can have molecule specific response due to convection as demonstrated experimentally and theoretically. Within this framework, we show here that it is possible to use this technique for sensitive detection of liquid versus gas phase. Experimental demonstration is made with a single beam FTLS experiment of traces of iodine in pentane mixture in liquid versus its vapor phase.

  3. Molecular Size and Mass Sensitive Femtosecond Thermal Spectrometer. S. Singhal, S. Goswami, A. Banerjee, and D. Goswami, in 2019 URSI Asia-Pacific Radio Science Conference (AP-RASC) (2019), pp. 1–3 [Abstract] [BibTeX]

    Abstract: Though a single ultrashort pulse has inconceivable thermal effect, highly repetitive femtosecond lasers often result in some heating effects. Instead of fretting over the thermal effect, we have used this to develop the time-resolved photothermal lens spectroscopy for molecular sensitivity.
