Abstract

Conventional thermal lens models unrealistically assume that the sample has an infinite radius. Taking realistic radial sample boundary conditions into account, a cw laser-induced mode-mismatched dual-beam thermal lens model is presented. Comparison of these two kinds of models has been made, which gives the quantitatively necessary and sufficient condition for the validity of the radial-infinite treatment on the sample: The sample radius should be larger than 2.5 times both excitation beam and probe beam radii in the sample.
