Photothermal microspectroscopy

Photothermal microspectroscopy is a technique that combines principles of photothermal effect with microscopy and spectroscopy to study materials and biological samples at high spatial resolution. This method is particularly effective for characterizing the optical and thermal properties of materials at the nanoscale. ### Key Features of Photothermal Microspectroscopy: 1. **Photothermal Effect**: When a material absorbs light (usually in the form of a laser), it can cause localized heating.
